Dear student,

Most oxides of non metals are acidic in nature  because they give acid 
 After recating with H2O as ;
​​​​CO2 + H2O = H2CO3

most of the oxides of metals are basic in nature as they form base upon reaction with water as;
K2O + H2O = KOH 
Amphoteric oxides are the oxides which react with acid as well as bases  to give salt and water and are insoluble in water as ;
Al2O3+6HCl→2AlCl3+3H2
Al2O3+2NaOH→2NaAlO2+H2
 Hence carbondioxide  is acidic, potassiumoxide is basic and aluminium oxide is amphoteric in nature.

Regards!!
