Solution
The correct options are
B s-block metal oxides are basic in nature, except BeO which is amphoteric.
C p-block metal oxides are acidic in nature, except NO,N2O,CO.
D d-block metal oxides are basic, acidic, and amphoteric in nature.
(A) BeO is amphoteric in nature. It reacts with acids as well as alkalies. Oxides of other s block metal elements are basic in nature. They react only with acids. hence, the option A is correct.
(B) The oxides NO,N2O,CO are neutral. Whereas the remaining oxides of p block metals are acidic in nature. Thus, the option B is correct.
Some of the d block metal oxides are basic in nature, some of them acidic in nature where as the rest are amphoteric in nature. Thus, the option C is correct and option D is incorrect.
