L Types of Oxides (Multiple Choice) QP

Element X forms an acidic oxide with a pH of 4. Element Y forms an alkaline solution that turns universal indicator blue. Elements that form acidic oxides are in the upper right corner of the periodic table, so X is likely carbon or nitrogen, and Y is likely an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal. Carbon dioxide is an acidic oxide that undergoes neutralization when reacting with calcium hydroxide.
