A

`XeF_(2)`

B

`XeF_(4)`

C

`XeF_(6)`

D

`XeF_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d
Electronic configuration of `Xe` is `5s^(2)5p^(6)`. After unpaired element in `5p` orbital number of unpaired element can be `2,4,6`. Hence `XeO_(6)` can form `XeF_(2), XeF_(4)` or `Xef_(6)` but not `XeF_(3)`
