CrO3 and Mn2O7 are considered as acidic oxides although they are mettalic oxides. Why?

Answer»

Metallic oxides are basic in nature because they react with dilute acids to form salt and water. They also react with water to form metal hydroxides which are alkaline in nature, as these metal hydroxides release OH- ions in solution.
