Explain the structures of
`XeF_(4)`

Explanation

Structure of `XeF_(4)` :
1) Central atom in `XeF_(4)` is 'Xe'.
2) Xe undergoes `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridisation in it's `2^(nd)` excited. State.

3) Shape of the molecule is square planar with bond angle `90^(@)` and bond length `1.95Å`.

4) Xe - forms `sigma` - bonds by the overlap of `sp^(3)d^(2)-2p_(z)` (F) orbbitals.
