What is the chemical name for XeF8?
Xenon Difluoride
Which compound led to discovery of the compound of noble gas?
I suppose that this compound is xenon difluoride - XeF2.
What is the reactants or product in xenon gas with fluorine gas to form xenon tetrafluoride gas?
A mixture of xenon and fluorine, when exposes to ultraviolet light will produce xenon difluoride (XeF2). After sustained heating in the presence of nickel fluoride (NiF2) , xenon difluoride will form xenon hexafluoride (XeF6). Subjecting XeF6 to very high temperatures, in an oxygen-free atmosphere and in the presence of sodium fluoride will yield xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4).The fluorides of nickel and sodium are catalysts in the processes.
Can Xenon and Fluorine combine?
Yes. XeF2 (xenon difluoride), XeF4 (xenon tetrafluoride), and XeF6 (xenon hexafluoride) are all real compounds. XeF4 was in fact the first noble gas compound to be discovered.
What is the chemical formula for xenon difluoride?
XeF2
What is the name of the molecular compound XeF6?
Xenon difluoride or XeF2 is a potent fluorinating agent. It is one of the most stable compounds of xenon and is also used as an isotropic gaseous etchant for silicon.
What the facts facts and some common compounds of Xenon?
Some common compounds of Xenon are...Xenon plantinofluoride (XePtF6)Xenon difluoride (XeF2)Xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4)Xenon hexafluoride (XeF6)Xenon trioxide (XeO3)Xenon oxytetrafluoride (XeOF4)Some of the common and/or cool uses for xenon is...Xenon is an odorless gas, a colorless gas, and emits a blue light when disturbedXenon has a melting point (-111.80oC), and a boiling point (108.13oC).The Earth's atmosphere is 0.0000087% Xenon.Xenon costs about $120 per GRAM!
What is the use of xenon gas?
Xenon produces a beautiful blue glow when excited by an electrical discharge. Xenon lamps have applications as high-speed electronic flash bulbs used by photographers, sunbed lamps and bactericidal lamps used in food preparation and processing. Xenon lamps are also used in ruby lasers. Xenon difluoride is used to etch silicon microprocessors. Xenon ion propulsion systems are used by satellites.
Explain why Krypton and Xenon do not react to form compounds?
The question cannot be answered sensibly because it is based on the misconception that compounds of xenon such as its difluoride, tetrafuoride, hexafluoride, tetroxide, and so on do not exist!
What state of matter is PtF2?
Platinum difluoride is gas.
Is xenon a gas liquid or a solid?
Normally a gas.
What is Xenon a metal?
Xenon is a gas
