Give example and suggest reasons for the following features of the transition metal chemistry:
The lowest oxide of transition metal is basic, the highest is amphoteric/acidic.


Transition metal oxides in lowest oxidation state are ionic in nature due to strongly metallic character of transition elements. In higher oxidation state transition element shows non-metallic character and as a result their oxides become covalent and acidic in nature. This is illustrated by following example of various oxides of manganese
Oxide :      MnO    Mn2O3       Mn3O4    MnO2     Mn2O7
Ox. side 
of Mn:               +2       +3             +8/3       +4                          +7 basic oxides         amphoteric oxide             acidic oxide
