Question:

The option(s) with only amphoteric oxides is (are):

Cr2O3,CrO,SnO,PbO

Cr2O3,BeO,SnO,SnO2

ZnO,Al2O3,PbO,PbO2

NO,B2O3,PbO,SnO2

Solution:

The options with only amphoteric oxides are Cr2O3, BeO, SnO, SnO2 and ZnO, Al2O3, PbO, PbO2. However, B2O3 is an acidic oxide, CrO is a basic oxide, and NO is neutral. Note: Amphoteric oxides react with acids as well as bases.
