Question

stoveture of XeF6 with method of Preb​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. XeF6 can be prepared by heating a mixture of xenon and fluorine in the ratio 1:20 in a nickel vessel at 600 K under 60–70 bar pressure.
2. It can also be obtained by reacting XeF4 with O2F2 at −130°C.
3. It is a strong fluorinating and oxidising agent.
4. With HF, it gives an ionic compound [XeF5]+[HF2]−.

Answer 2

Answer:

It is a compound of xenon with fluorine. Xenon exhibits +6 oxidation state in this compound.

Preparation:

• XeF6 can be prepared by heating a mixture of xenon and fluorine in the ratio 1:20 in a nickel vessel at 600 K under 60–70 bar pressure.
• It can also be obtained by reacting XeF4 with O2F2 at −130°C.

• It is a strong fluorinating and oxidising agent.
• With HF, it gives an ionic compound [XeF5]+[HF2]−.

• On heating, it decomposes to give XeF2 and XeF4.
