Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To write the formula of the acid formed due to reaction of ${\text{SO}}_{\text{2}}$ with water.

Concept introduction:

The reaction of acidic oxide with water results in the formation of an acid. The oxidation states of these oxides of either metal or non-metal is generally high.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

To write the formula of the acid formed due to reaction of ${\text{Cl}}_2\text{O}$ with water.

Concept introduction:

The reaction of acidic oxide with water results in the formation of an acid. The oxidation states of these oxides of either metal or non-metal is generally high.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

To write the formula of the acid formed due to reaction of ${\text{P}}_{\text{4}}{\text{O}}_{\text{6}}$ with water.

Concept introduction:

The reaction of acidic oxide with water results in the formation of an acid. The oxidation states of these oxides of either metal or non-metal is generally high.
