Question on: JAMB Chemistry - 2019
Which of the following is a set of neutral oxides?
A
N\(_2\)O, H\(_2\)O, CO
B
N\(_2\)O, SO\(_2\), CO
C
N\(_2\)O, Na\(_2\)O, ZnO
D
N\(_2\)O, SO\(_3\), NO
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A
Neutral oxides show neither basic nor acidic properties. As a result of this behaviour neutral oxides do not form salts when reacted with acids or bases, e.g., carbon monoxide (CO); nitrous oxide (N2O); nitric oxide (NO), etc., are neutral oxides
