Solution

Acidic oxides, also known as acid anhydrides, are usually non-metal oxides. They react with water to form acids or with bases to form salts.

From the list provided, the acidic oxides are:

  1. CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
  2. CO (Carbon Monoxide)
  3. B2O3 (Boron Trioxide)
  4. Tl2O3 (Thallium(III) Oxide)
  5. SnO2 (Tin(IV) Oxide)
  6. PbO2 (Lead(IV) Oxide)

So, there are 6 acidic oxides in the list provided.
