Among the following, the most basic oxide is(a) Al2O3(b) P2O5(c) SiO2(d) Na2O

Answer»

Answer is : (d) Na2O

All the central atom of the given oxide belong to 2nd period, as we move from left to right in a period the basicity of oxide decreases.

∴ The order of increasing basicity of oxide would be P2O5 < SiO< Al2O< Na2O

Thus, the most basic oxide would be Na2O.
