The ability of the hydride to donate a hydrogen ion can be directly correlated with the decreasing bond strength of the element-hydrogen bond. That is, as the bond strength decreases down the family, the acidity increases. For the same reason, the general chemical reactivity of nonmetal hydrides also increases with increasing atomic number of the nonmetal.
Nonmetal elements such as sulfur and nonmetal oxides like carbon dioxide form acidic oxides.
non metals
Most of the non-metals combine with oxygen to form acidic oxides.
Oxides of non-metals are typically acidic because they react with water to form acidic solutions. This is due to the presence of non-metallic elements which have a tendency to gain electrons and form acidic compounds when combined with oxygen.
They are also known as acidic oxides since they form acidic solutions in water.
Nonmetal elements such as sulfur and nonmetal oxides like carbon dioxide form acidic oxides.
The acidity of oxides generally decreases across period 3 from left to right. The oxides of elements on the left side, like sodium and magnesium, are basic (alkaline), while the oxides of elements on the right side, like sulfur and chlorine, are acidic. This trend is due to the change in bonding characteristics as the elements progress from metals to nonmetals across the period.

acidic because when alkali oxides are reacted with water they give a acid
Most of the non-metals combine with oxygen to form acidic oxides.
Acidic oxides are typically formed by nonmetals and some metalloids. Common elements that produce acidic oxides include sulfur (forming sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide), nitrogen (forming nitrogen dioxide), phosphorus (forming phosphorus pentoxide), and carbon (forming carbon dioxide). These oxides generally react with water to form acids or with bases to form salts, contributing to their acidic nature.
Non-metal oxides are often referred to as acidic oxides because they produce acidic solutions when they are dissolved in water. These oxides are typically formed by non-metal elements combining with oxygen.

No, not all oxides are acidic. Oxides can be classified as acidic, basic, or amphoteric depending on their chemical properties. Acidic oxides react with water to form an acidic solution, basic oxides react with water to form a basic solution, and amphoteric oxides can act as either an acid or a base depending on the conditions.
The oxide ion itself is basic, but oxides of various elements may be acidic, basic, or amphoteric.
Non-metallic oxides are acidic (Except hydrogen, oxygen, helium, neon, argon) whereas metallic oxides are generally amphoteric or alkali (Except chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, niobium, tantalum, technetium, rhenium, ruthenium, osmium, bismuth)
