An element of group 14 forms two oxides one of which is highlty poisionous and neutral. Other oxide can be easily liquefied and compressed to give a solid which is used as a refrigerant under the name of drikold. The element and the oxides are

Answer»

`Si,SiO,SiO_(2)`
`PB,PbP,PbO_(2)`
`C,CO,CO_(2)`
`Sn,SnO,SnO_(2)`

Solution :C forms two oxides CO and `CO_(2)`. CO is NEUTRAL and poisnonous `CO_(2)` can be compressed to a refrigerant dry is ice or solid `CO_(2)`. SiO is UNSTABLE. SnO and PbO are amphoteric in nature.
