JEE Main 2026 · 5 April · Evening Shift · Chemistry · Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties

Given below are two statements : Statement I: The number of pairs...

Given below are two statements :
Statement I: The number of pairs among [Al2O3,Cr2O3][Al_2O_3, Cr_2O_3], [Cl2O7,Mn2O7][Cl_2O_7, Mn_2O_7], [Na2O,V2O3][Na_2O, V_2O_3] and [CO,N2O][CO, N_2O] that contain oxides of same nature (acidic, basic, neutral or amphoteric) is 44.
Statement II: Among Na2ONa_2O, Al2O3Al_2O_3, COCO and Cl2O7Cl_2O_7, the most basic and acidic oxides are Na2ONa_2O and Cl2O7Cl_2O_7, respectively.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Options

  1. ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
  4. DStatement I is false but Statement II is true

Correct answer

A. Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Step-by-step solution

Statement I:
Al2O3Al_2O_3 and Cr2O3Cr_2O_3 are both amphoteric oxides.
Cl2O7Cl_2O_7 and Mn2O7Mn_2O_7 are both acidic oxides.
Na2ONa_2O and V2O3V_2O_3 are both basic oxides.
COCO and N2ON_2O are both neutral oxides.
All 44 pairs contain oxides of the same nature. Hence, Statement I is true.

Statement II:
Na2ONa_2O is a strongly basic oxide.
Al2O3Al_2O_3 is an amphoteric oxide.
COCO is a neutral oxide.
Cl2O7Cl_2O_7 is a strongly acidic oxide.
Thus, the most basic oxide is Na2ONa_2O and the most acidic oxide is Cl2O7Cl_2O_7. Hence, Statement II is true.

Both Statement I and Statement II are true.

Answer: Both Statement I and Statement II are true
