Assertion (A): Sodium perxenate `(Na_(4)XeO_(6))` reacts with `NaF` in acidic medium to give `XeO_(3)` and `F_(2)` Reason (R ): `XeO_(6)^(4-)` is a stronger oxidant than `F_(2)`.A. Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is true, statement 2 is a correct explanation for statement 5B. Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is true, statement 2 is not a correct explanation for statement 5C. Statement 1 is true, statement 2 is falseD. Statement 1 is false, statement 2 is true |

Answer» Correct Answer - A `overset(+8)(XeO_(6)^(4-))+overset(-1)(2F^(ɵ))+6H^(o+) rarr overset(+6)(Xe)O_(3)+overset(0)F_(2)+3H_(2)O` The oxidation number of Xe decreases from +8 to +6 in `XeO_(3)` while that of F increase from -1 to zero. Therefore, `XeO_(6)^(4-)` is reduced while `F^(ɵ)` is oxidised. Hence, `XeO_(6)^(4-)` is a stronger ocidant than `F_(2)` |
