Which xenon compound is isostructural with `ICl_(4)^(-)`.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which xenon compound is isostructural with \( ICl_4^- \), we need to analyze the structure and hybridization of \( ICl_4^- \) and then find a xenon compound that has the same structural characteristics. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structure of \( ICl_4^- \)**: - The \( ICl_4^- \) ion has a total of 7 valence electrons from iodine (7) and 4 chlorine atoms (4 x 7 = 28), plus one extra electron due to the negative charge, giving a total of 36 valence electrons. - The hybridization of \( ICl_4^- \) can be determined by counting the number of bond pairs and lone pairs around the iodine atom. - There are 4 bond pairs (from the 4 \( Cl \) atoms) and 2 lone pairs on the iodine atom. ...
