Solution

The correct option is D Zinc oxide

Metals generally form basic oxides, some of which are also amphoteric, such as aluminum oxide, zinc oxide, lead oxide, etc.


Non-metals generally form acidic oxides. Some oxides are neutral, such as nitrous oxide, nitric oxide, carbon monoxide water, etc.
Hence, option D is correct.
