The correct Answer is:
To determine which products can be obtained by the hydrolysis of \( \text{XeF}_2 \) (xenon difluoride), we will analyze the hydrolysis reaction step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Hydrolysis**: Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction involving the addition of water to a compound. In this case, we are looking at the hydrolysis of xenon difluoride. 2. **Writing the Reaction**: The hydrolysis of \( \text{XeF}_2 \) can be represented as: \[ \text{XeF}_2 + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{Xe} + 2 \text{HF} + \text{O}_2 \] Here, \( \text{XeF}_2 \) reacts with water to produce xenon gas (\( \text{Xe} \)), hydrogen fluoride (\( \text{HF} \)), and oxygen gas (\( \text{O}_2 \)). 3. **Identifying the Products**: From the reaction, we can identify the products formed: - Xenon gas (\( \text{Xe} \)) - Hydrogen fluoride (\( \text{HF} \)) - Oxygen gas (\( \text{O}_2 \)) 4. **Selecting the Correct Options**: The question asks which of the following can be obtained from the hydrolysis of \( \text{XeF}_2 \). The options provided include: - \( \text{HF} \) - \( \text{XeO}_2 \) - \( \text{Xe} \) - \( \text{O}_2 \) Based on our reaction, the correct products are: - \( \text{HF} \) (hydrogen fluoride) - \( \text{Xe} \) (xenon) 5. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the products obtained from the hydrolysis of \( \text{XeF}_2 \) are \( \text{HF} \) and \( \text{Xe} \). ### Final Answer: The correct options are: - **A**: \( \text{HF} \) - **D**: \( \text{Xe} \)
