Question

do acidic oxide exist ?
what is the nature of acidic oxides ?

Answer 1

An acidic oxide is an oxide that theoritically derives from the dehydration of an acid. For example :\[C_2O+H_2O=H_2CO_3\]They can react with bases, basic oxides and water.

Answer 2

what is the nature of acidic oxides ?

Answer 3

An acidic oxide (sometimes known as an acidic anhydride, but not to be confused with an acid anhydride) is an oxide that either

reacts with water to form an acid; or
reacts with a base to form a salt.
Examples include:

Carbon dioxide which reacts with water to produce carbonic acid.
Sulfur dioxide, which does not form the non-existent sulfurous acid but does react with bases to form sulfites.
Silicon dioxide, which does not react with water but will react with bases to form silicates
Chromium trioxide, which reacts with water to form chromic acid. Chromic acid is a hypothetical acid. The monomer and dimer would respectively have structures similar to sulfuric and disulfuric acids.

Answer 4

i learnt it from wikipedia also raheen but what is the nature of acids oxides

Answer 5

@ raheen
Source?

Answer 6

Kmousou the source is wikipedia

Answer 7

i mean that what is the nature of the oxides of acids and bases ?

Answer 8

Well, obviously. I think common decency, however, requests for the source to be cited.

Answer 9

@ kushashwa23
See if you can make something out of: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxide

Answer 10

kmousou i saw this but can not get the nature of the oxides of ACIDS and bases

Answer 11

I think this website is quite thorough: http://tinyurl.com/6xeuvm4

Answer 12

first tell me one thing , DO OXIDES OF ACIDS ALSO EXISTS

Answer 13

first tell me one thing , DO OXIDES OF ACIDS ALSO EXISTS

Answer 14

Yes, of course.

Answer 15

then what is the nature of them >?

Answer 16

Do you need to know their characteristics?

Answer 17

let me take an acid :
H2CO3
i talked about OXIDES OF ACIDS
hence OXIDE OF H2CO3 ????????????? is there any oxide of H2CO3

Answer 18

As I mentioned before, the oxide of \[H_2CO_3\]is carbon dioxide\[CO_2\]

Answer 19

hmmmmm

Answer 20

so nature of CO2 ?

Answer 21

bye

Answer 22

Carbon dioxide is a gas.

Answer 23

i meant that is CO2 basic or acidic in nature

Answer 24

It is acidic.
