  • question_answer
                Which of the following is most acidic?                                                                                                        

    A)              \[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]

    B)                                    \[{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]       

    C)              \[A{{s}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]    

    D)              \[S{{b}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]                               

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Acidic nature of oxides decreases down a group. So, \[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\] is most acidic.             Another reason of acidic strength of \[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\] is that the electronegativity of N is maximum in die given Vth group elements. As we know that by increasing the electronegative character, acidic nature increases.
