Question:medium
Beryllium is diagonally related to the element \(X\) and lithium is diagonally related to the element \(Y\). The nature of oxides of \(X\) and \(Y\) are respectively
Beryllium is diagonally related to the element \(X\) and lithium is diagonally related to the element \(Y\). The nature of oxides of \(X\) and \(Y\) are respectively
Show Hint
Diagonal relationships:
\[
\boxed{
\mathrm{Li \leftrightarrow Mg}
}
\]
\[
\boxed{
\mathrm{Be \leftrightarrow Al}
}
\]
Also,
\[
\mathrm{Al_2O_3}
\text{ is amphoteric, while }
\mathrm{MgO}
\text{ is basic.}
\]
