The correct Answer is:
To solve the question of which compound, upon partial hydrolysis, gives xenon-oxidifluoride (XeOF₂), we will analyze the hydrolysis of the given xenon compounds step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the Compounds We need to consider the following xenon compounds for partial hydrolysis: 1. Xenon difluoride (XeF₂) 2. Xenon tetrafluoride (XeF₄) 3. Xenon hexafluoride (XeF₆) 4. Xenon oxy-tetrafluoride (XeOF₄) ### Step 2: Partial Hydrolysis of Xenon Difluoride (XeF₂) When xenon difluoride reacts with water (H₂O), the reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{XeF}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{Xe} + \text{HF} + \frac{1}{2} \text{O}_2 \] This reaction does not produce xenon-oxidifluoride. ### Step 3: Partial Hydrolysis of Xenon Tetrafluoride (XeF₄) Now, let's consider xenon tetrafluoride: \[ \text{XeF}_4 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{XeOF}_2 + 2 \text{HF} \] This reaction produces xenon-oxidifluoride (XeOF₂). ### Step 4: Partial Hydrolysis of Xenon Hexafluoride (XeF₆) Next, we analyze xenon hexafluoride: \[ \text{XeF}_6 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{XeOF}_4 + 2 \text{HF} \] This reaction produces xenon-oxy-tetrafluoride (XeOF₄), not xenon-oxidifluoride. ### Step 5: Partial Hydrolysis of Xenon Oxy-Tetrafluoride (XeOF₄) Lastly, we consider the hydrolysis of xenon oxy-tetrafluoride: \[ \text{XeOF}_4 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{XeO}_2\text{F}_2 + 2 \text{HF} \] This reaction produces xenon-dioxide-difluoride (XeO₂F₂), not xenon-oxidifluoride. ### Conclusion From the analysis, the only compound that produces xenon-oxidifluoride (XeOF₂) upon partial hydrolysis is **xenon tetrafluoride (XeF₄)**. ### Final Answer The correct option is **xenon tetrafluoride (XeF₄)**. ---

To solve the question of which compound, upon partial hydrolysis, gives xenon-oxidifluoride (XeOF₂), we will analyze the hydrolysis of the given xenon compounds step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the Compounds We need to consider the following xenon compounds for partial hydrolysis: 1.
