Match List-I with List-II
List-I List-II
(A) Cl$$_2$$O$$_7$$ (I) Amphoteric
(B) Na$$_2$$O (II) Basic
(C) Al$$_2$$O$$_3$$ (III) Neutral
(D) N$$_2$$O (IV) Acidic
Choose the correct answer from the options given below
Let us classify each oxide:
(A) $$Cl_2O_7$$ is the anhydride of perchloric acid ($$HClO_4$$). Chlorine is a non-metal, and $$Cl_2O_7$$ is an acidic oxide (IV).
(B) $$Na_2O$$, sodium being an alkali metal, reacts with water to form NaOH (a strong base), so $$Na_2O$$ is a basic oxide (II).
(C) $$Al_2O_3$$ is a classic example of an amphoteric oxide (I), reacting with both acids and bases: $$Al_2O_3 + 6HCl \rightarrow 2AlCl_3 + 3H_2O$$ and $$Al_2O_3 + 2NaOH \rightarrow 2NaAlO_2 + H_2O$$.
(D) $$N_2O$$ (nitrous oxide, laughing gas) is a neutral oxide (III) that does not react with acids or bases to form salts.
The correct matching is (A) - (IV), (B) - (II), (C) - (I), (D) - (III).
Hence, the correct answer is Option B.
