mixd anhydride are the compound that react with water to form a mixture of two acidic anhydride
2NO2 + H20--- HNO2 + HNO3
2CLO2 + H2O---HCLO2 + HCLO3
CL2O6 + H20--HCLO3 + HCLO4
AS2O4 + 3 H20--H3ASO4 + H3ASO4

Mixed anhyrides are nonmetallic oxides which when treated with water give a mixture of 2 acids one in which the oxidation state of nonmetal is 1 more than it's oxidation state in the anhyrides and the other with oxidation state 1 less than the nonmetal in respective anhydride

Dear student,
Please find the attached solution to your problem below.
 
mixed anhydride are the compound that react with water to form a mixture of two acidic anhydride
2NO2 + H2O →  HNO2 + HNO3
2ClO2 + H2O → HClO2 + HClO3
Cl2O6 + H2O → HClO3 + HClO4
AS2O4 + 3 H2O → H3ASO4 + H3ASO4
 
Thanks and regards,
Kushagra
