Vedclass · Answer

(D) The acidic strength of oxides depends on the non-metallic character and the oxidation state of the central atom. Acidic character increases as the non-metallic character increases across a period and decreases down a group. Comparing the oxides: $SO_3$ (Sulfur is in $+6$ oxidation state),$CO_2$ (Carbon is in $+4$ oxidation state),and $B_2O_3$ (Boron is in $+3$ oxidation state). Since the non-metallic character follows the order $S > C > B$,the acidic strength of their oxides follows the order $SO_3 > CO_2 > B_2O_3$. Therefore,option $D$ is correct.

List-$I$ (Oxide)	List-$II$ (Nature)
$A. Cl_2O_7$	$I. \text{Amphoteric}$
$B. Na_2O$	$II. \text{Basic}$
$C. Al_2O_3$	$III. \text{Neutral}$
$D. N_2O$	$IV. \text{Acidic}$
