Why does the following reaction occur?What conclusion about the compound Na,XeOs (of which XeO is a part) can bedrawn from the reaction. |
Answer» Given, Reaction: XeO6(4-) (aq) + 2F– (aq) + 6H+(aq)→XeO3(g) + F2(g) + 3H2O(l) In this reaction, we can conclude that the ON of Xe decreases from + 8 of XeO6(4-) to form + 6 of XeO3. The ON of F also increases from -1 of F- to form 0 in F2. So, we can say that Na4XeO6 is stronger oxidizing agent as compared to F. thanks |
