Among the following, the one which is the most basic is

A

`ZnO`

B

`MgO`

C

`Al_(2)O_(3)`

D

`N_(2)O_(5)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

ZnO and `Al_(2)O_(3)` are amphoteric oxide `N_(2)O_(5)` is oxide of non-metal, so it is acidic and hence, MgO is most basic among `Al_(2) O_(3), ZnO, N_(2)O_(5)` and MgO.
