1.	Under ambient conditions, the total number of gases released as products in the final step of the reaction scheme show below is XeF_(6)underset("hydrolysis")overset("Complete")(rarr) underset(underset(underset(underset("Products")(""darr "slow disproportionation in" OH^(-)//H_(2)O))(Q))(""darr OH^(-)//H_(2)O))(""P + "Other products")
Answer» 0 1 2 3 Solution :`XF_(6) + 3H_(2)O underset("hydrolysis")overset("Complete")rarr underset(P)(XeO_(3)) + 6 HF` `underset(Q)(2 HXeO_(4)^(-)) 2OH^(-) underset(("Slow disproportionation"))overset(OH^(-)//H_(2)O)rarr Xe(g) + XeO_(6)^(4-) (aq) + 2H_(2)O (l) + O_(2)(g)` Two GASES, i.e., Xe and `O_(2)` are RELEASED, i.e., option (c) is CORRECT.
