The correct decreasing order of basic character of the oxides is

A

`K_(2)OgtMgOgtSrOgtCs_(2)O`

B

`Cs_(2)OgtK_(2)OgtSrOgtMgO`

C

`MgOgtSrOgtK_(2)OgtCs_(2)O`

D

`Cs_(2)OgtK_(2)OgtMgOgtSrO`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Alkali metal oxides are more basic as compound to alkaline earth metal oxides. Among alkali metals and alkaline earth metals basicity increases down the group `(darr)`. Thus `Cs_(2)O` is more basic than `K_(2)O` and `SrO` is more basic than `MgO`.
