The first compound of the noble gasees was made in 1962. Barlett and Lohman had previously used the highly oxidizing compound platium hexaflouride to oxidize dioxygen.
`O_(2)+PtF_(6) to O_(2)^(+)[PtF_(6)]^(-)`
The first ionization energy for `O_(2) to O_(2)` is `1165kJ*mol^(-1)`, which is almost as the value of `1170kJ*mol^(-1)` for `Xe to Xe^(+)`. It was predicated that xenon should react with `PtF_(6)`. Experimental showed that when deep of red `PtF_(6)` vapour was mixed with an equal volume of Xe the gases combined immediately at room temperature to produce a solid.
`Xe+PtF_(6) to Xe[PtF_(6)]`
Q. IUPAC name of first xenon-compounds synthesized by secientist Barlett is :

A

xenonhexaflouroplatinate(IV)

B

xenonhexaflouroplatinate(V)

C

hexafluoroplatinum(V) xenon

D

xenoniumhexafluoroplatinum(V)

The correct Answer is:
To determine the IUPAC name of the first xenon compound synthesized by scientists Bartlett and Lohman, we need to analyze the reaction and the resulting compound. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reaction**: The reaction is given as: \[ \text{Xe} + \text{PtF}_6 \rightarrow \text{Xe}[\text{PtF}_6] \] Here, xenon (Xe) reacts with platinum hexafluoride (PtF6) to form a complex. 2. **Determine the Oxidation State of Xenon**: In the reaction, xenon is replacing the dioxygen in the earlier reaction where dioxygen has a positive charge: \[ \text{O}_2 + \text{PtF}_6 \rightarrow \text{O}_2^{+}[\text{PtF}_6]^{-} \] Since O2 has a +1 charge, xenon must also have a +1 charge in this complex: \[ \text{Charge of Xe} = +1 \] 3. **Determine the Oxidation State of Platinum**: In the complex \(\text{Xe}[\text{PtF}_6]\), the charge on the entire complex is neutral. The fluorine atoms each have a -1 charge, and there are 6 fluorine atoms: \[ \text{Total charge from F} = 6 \times (-1) = -6 \] Let \(x\) be the oxidation state of platinum (Pt). The equation for the charge balance is: \[ x + (-6) = 0 \implies x = +6 \] Therefore, platinum has an oxidation state of +6. 4. **Naming the Compound**: The IUPAC naming convention states that the cation is named first followed by the anion. In this case: - The cation is xenon, which carries a +1 charge. - The anion is the complex ion formed by platinum and fluorine, specifically, it is named as "hexafluoroplatinate" because there are six fluorine atoms. 5. **Final Name**: Combining the names, the full IUPAC name of the compound is: \[ \text{Xenon hexafluoroplatinate (V)} \] The oxidation state of platinum is indicated in Roman numerals as (V). ### Conclusion: The IUPAC name of the first xenon compound synthesized by scientists Bartlett is **Xenon hexafluoroplatinate (V)**.
