Detailed Solution

A) Both BeO and Al2O3 are amphoteric since the electronegativities of Be(1.5) and Al(1.5) are same and also due to the polarizing powers of Be2+ and Al3+ are nearly same BeO and Al2O3 should have equal amphoteric character, but due to more charge density on Al3+ it has little more acidic character than Be2+ pKa values of Be2+ and Al3+ are 6.2 and 5.0 respectively. 

B) As the electropositive character of the element decrease. The acidic character of their hydroxides increase
