Among noble gases, Xe is quite reactive and form a number of fluorides and oxyfluorides. In these compounds the electrons, from 5p orbitals are excited to 5d orbitals. The predicted shapes of xenon fluorides are linear, square planar and distorted octahedron. The shapes of xeon oxyfluorides can be prodicted by VSEPR theory.
