Dear student, X is non-metal because it forms acidic oxide
Example:- sulphur, Carbon,etc Non-metals don't usually react with
water but the non-metal oxides do react with water and they produce
acids One example is chlorine gas (chlorine oxide) reacts with
clouds (water) to form acids which come down as acid rain regards

an element has two oxides XO and XO2.. XO is neutral ,insoluble in water ,flammable and poisonous in nature... XO2 is acidic in nature ,soluble in water and extinguishers fire..IDENTIFY X and explain how it reacts with water
