Neither argon nor xenonis a hexafluoride but xenon does form a hexafluoride.
Xenon has a hexafluoride, which is xenon hexafluoride (XeF6). Argon does not have a stable hexafluoride compound.
Xenon is a noble gas that is used in light bulbs and medical imaging, while argon is also a noble gas commonly used in welding and as a shielding gas. Xenon is more expensive and less abundant in the atmosphere compared to argon.
Noble gases - the rest are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and RADON.
Argon. "Period 3" means the third row of the periodic table. Noble gases are in "Group 18", the column on the far right.
Because the xenon atom's electrons in its lower orbitals (5s and 5p) are promoted to a higher shell (5d). This allows the fluorine to bond with these unpaired electrons. Argon would have to promote 3s and 3p to 3d (too high of an energy gap).See the link below.
Hexafluoride compounds are formed when oxygen combines with either argon or xenon in the presence of fluorine. These compounds have the chemical formula XeF6 for xenon and ArF6 for argon.
No, it does not.
XeF6
Xenon has a hexafluoride, which is xenon hexafluoride (XeF6). Argon does not have a stable hexafluoride compound.
Yes, xenon is larger than argon. Xenon has more electrons and a larger atomic radius compared to argon.
Yes, xenon is larger than argon. Xenon has more electrons and therefore a larger atomic size compared to argon.
argon and xenon are the rare gas
Xenon is similar to other noble gases such as argon and krypton.
Xenon and argon are the elements used in fluorescent lights.
