  2. B \(\mathrm{ZnO}, \mathrm{PbO}, \mathrm{BeO}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{CO}, \mathrm{NO}, \mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{O}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{Mn}_2 \mathrm{O}_7, \mathrm{CrO}_3, \mathrm{~V}_2 \mathrm{O}_5\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{Mn}_2 \mathrm{O}_7, \mathrm{CrO}_3, \mathrm{~V}_2 \mathrm{O}_5\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Acidic oxides \(\rightarrow \mathrm{Mn}_2 \mathrm{O}_7, \mathrm{CrO}_3, \mathrm{~V}_2 \mathrm{O}_5\) (due to higher oxidation state of central metal) Basic oxide \(\rightarrow \mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{CaO}, \mathrm{BaO}\) (due to lower oxidation state of central metal)…
