Question

In XeF2,XeF4,XeF6 number of lone pairs on Xe are present

Answer 1

Hey there !!!!!

In XeF₂,total number of valence electrons of Xe=8, two electrons are shared with 2F atoms,6 electrons are left hence 3 lone pairs.

In XeF₄,total number of valence electrons of Xe=8,4 electrons are shared with 4F atoms ,4 electrons are left hence 2 lone pairs.

In XeF₆,total number of valence electrons of Xe=8,6 electrons are shared with 6F atoms ,2 electrons are left hence 1 lone pair.


Hope this helped you................

Answer 2

Xef2,Xef4,Xef6 will have 3,2,1 lone pairs
