In the modern periodic table, the acidic nature of oxides
- A increases from left to right and decreases from top to bottom
- B decreases from right to left and increases from top to bottom
- C remains same across a period and increases from top to bottom
- D decreases from left to right and remains the same down the group
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) increases from left to right and decreases from top to bottom
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
More the electropositivity of central atom, the more basic is the oxide and more electronegative central atom, more acidic is the oxide. As we know, the electronegativity is the property of the element to attract electrons pairs. Hence, acidic character of the oxides "decreases…
