Q.

Statement-1: The decreasing order of acidic character of CO2,N2O5,SiO2 and SO3 is SO3>N2O5>CO2>SiO2.

Statement-2: As electronegativity difference (E-O) decreases, acidic character of the oxide increases.

Detailed Solution

The acidic nature of oxides also increases as the nonmetallic character increases over time. On the other hand, as the group gets smaller, the metallic character grows and the acidic nature of oxides decreases. Consequently, the order of acidity should be,

SO3>N2O5>CO2>SiO2

The ability of an element to draw in electron pairs is known as electronegativity. Because of this drop in electronegativity, the acidity of the oxides "decreases along the group.
