    Which one of the following orders presents the correct sequence of the increasing basic nature of the given oxides?

    A) \[A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}<MgO<N{{a}_{2}}O<{{K}_{2}}O\]

    B)  \[Mg\,O\]\[<{{K}_{2}}O\]\[<\]\[A{{I}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]\[<N{{a}_{2}}O\]

    C)  \[N{{a}_{2}}O\]\[<{{K}_{2}}O\]\[<MgO\]\[<\]\[A{{I}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]

    D)  \[{{K}_{2}}O\]\[<N{{a}_{2}}O\]\[<\]\[A{{I}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]\[<MgO\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] In a period, the nature of oxides varies from basic to acidic while in a group, basic nature of oxides increases. \[Oxides\underleftarrow{Decreaes}\]In a period, basic nature                         Changes to acidic nature
    \[\downarrow \]Basic nature
    Increases in a group
    Group 1 2 13
    Period 3\[\to \] \[N{{a}_{2}}O\]          \[MgO\] \[A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]
        (Amphotiric oxide)
    Period 4\[\to \] \[{{K}_{2}}O\] (Strongly basic)
    Hence, basic nature of oxides are as follows \[A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}<MgO<N{{a}_{2}}O<{{K}_{2}}O\]
