Vedclass · Answer

(B) Xenon is a noble gas that forms fluorides with fluorine. The known stable fluorides of xenon are $XeF_2$,$XeF_4$,and $XeF_6$. $XeF_3$ is not a stable compound because xenon typically forms fluorides with an even number of fluorine atoms due to the nature of its bonding and the promotion of electrons into $d$-orbitals. Therefore,$XeF_3$ is impossible.

Which of the following xenon fluorides is impossible?
