Which of the following oxyacids of phosphorus is a reducing agent and monobasic?

A

`XeF_(2)`

B

`XeF_(4)`

C

`XeO_(3)`

D

`XeF_(6)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`XeF_(2)overset("Ni tube")(rarr)XeF_(2),Xe+2F_(2)overset(673K)underset(6 atm)(rarr)XeF_(4)`
`Xe+3F_(2)overset(573-573K)underset(50-60" atom")(rarr)XeF_(6)`
`XeO_(3)` is obtained by the hydrolysis of `XeF_(6)`
`XeF_(6)+3H_(2)OrarrXeO_(3)+6HF`
