Vedclass · Answer

(D) . $BeO$ is amphoteric in nature. It reacts with both acids and bases. Oxides of other $s-$ block metal elements are basic in nature and react only with acids.$B$. The oxides $NO, N_2O, CO$ are neutral,while most other non-metal oxides are acidic.$C$. All $d-$ block elements are transition metals.$D$. This statement is incorrect because $d-$ block metal oxides exhibit a range of properties: some are basic,some are acidic,and others are amphoteric (e.g.,$CrO_3$ is acidic,$Cr_2O_3$ is amphoteric,and $CrO$ is basic).
