- ✓$Bi_2O_3$
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
$Bi_2O_3$
d
Left to right in the periodic table, the acidic nature increases and from top to bottom the basic character increases for the oxides.
Left to right in the periodic table, the acidic nature increases and from top to bottom the basic character increases for the oxides.
So the basic nature is
$B i_{2} O_{3}>S b_{2} O_{3}>A l_{2} O_{3}>S e O_{2}$
