What are more interesting facts about xenon?
Xenon was discovered in 1898 shortly after William Ramsay and Morris Travers discovered krypton and neon. Xenon is a trace element in the Earth's atmosphere. Xenon is found in atmosphere of planet Mars and Jupiter. Xenon can be forced into a solid metallic phase by extreme pressure, as much as several hundred kilobars. In its metallic state, xenon has a sky blue color. There are more than forty radioactive isotopes of xenon. Due to electrical excitement, xenon is used in high-powered lamps and flash lamps such as photography strobe lights. While inert and not readily reacting with other elements, xenon and oxygen compounds can be toxic and explosive.
What happens when you mix fluorine with xenon?
When you mix fluorine with xenon, the fluorine can react with xenon to form xenon fluorides, such as xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4) or xenon hexafluoride (XeF6). These xenon fluorides are generally unstable and highly reactive compounds.
What is five common compounds that contain Xenon?
Xenon is a noble gas. I would think any compounds would be hard to make with using Xenon.
What is the chemical name for XeF8?
Xenon Difluoride
Nebrasaka facts that start with the letter x?
Xenon International Academy is located in Omaha, Nebraska. Xavier Circle is the name of a street in Lincoln, Nebraska.
What forms a hexafluoride argon or xenon?
Xenon has a hexafluoride, which is xenon hexafluoride (XeF6). Argon does not have a stable hexafluoride compound.
Does xenon form a monatomic ion?
Yes, xenon can form monatomic ions, known as xenon ions. Xenon can lose electrons to form positively charged xenon ions or gain electrons to form negatively charged xenon ions.
How many electrons does xenon have?
Xenon has 54 electrons.
What is the name of the compound with the formula XeO3?
Xenon Trioxide
What identifies the species that occupies the lattice points in crystals of xenon and xenon tetrafluoride?
In crystals of xenon, the species occupying the lattice points is xenon atoms. In xenon tetrafluoride crystals, the species occupying the lattice points is a combination of xenon atoms and fluorine atoms in a specific arrangement.
