उत्तर

Na2O

Explanation:

Sodium oxide (Na2O) is a strongly basic oxide, not a neutral one, because it reacts vigorously with water to form the base sodium hydroxide (NaOH). In contrast, carbon monoxide (CO), Water (H2O), and nitrous oxide (N2O) are classic neutral oxides that show neither acidic nor basic properties when mixed with water.
