Noble gases were considered inert before 1962. Prior to this, Bartlett and Lohmann had previously used the highly ionization energy of `O_(2)` is `1165 " kJ mol"^(-1)`, which is almost the same as the value of `IE_(1)` for Xe `(1170 " kJ mol"^(-1))` . Experiments showed that when deep red `PtE_(6)` vapours were mixed with an equal volume of Xe, the gases combined immediately at room temperature to produce a yellow solid. Soon after this, it was found that Xe and F react directly to give Xe-fluorides. Choose the correct answer : In what molar ratio must Xe and `F_(2)` combine to give `XeF_(4)` ?A. `2 : 1`B. `1 : 2`C. `1 : 5`D. `1 : 20 `

Answer» Correct Answer - C
It is the correct ratio.
