1.	Showby achemicalreaction withwaterthat Na_(2) O isa basicoxideand CI_(2)O_(7) is anacidicoxide .
Answer» Solution :`Na_(2)O` reactswithwater to fromsodiumhydroxidewhichturnsredlitumsblue, `{:(Na_(2)O + H_(2)O ,,to ,,2NaOH ),("Sod oxide ",,,,"Sod . Hydroxide "):}` Therefore`Na_(2)O` is a basicoxide In CONTRAST `C1_(2)O_(7)` reacts withwaterto formperchloric acidwhichturmsbluelitmus red `{:(Cl_(2) O_(7)+H_(2)O ,,to ,,2HClO_(4)),("Chlorine (VII) oxide ",,,,"Perchloric acid "):}` Therefore `Cl_(2) O_(7)` isanacidicoxide.
