    The most acidic oxide is :                      

    A) \[MgO\]                              

    B) \[CaO\]

    C) \[N{{a}_{2}}O\]                                

    D) \[A{{l}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Na, Mg and Ca are highly reactive metals and  their oxides are strongly basic whereas \[\text{A}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\]is amphoteric. So among all these \[\text{A}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\]is comparatively acidic.
