Xenon has been formed into two hydrides: xenon dihydride (HXeH), and later xenon hydride-hydroxide (HXeOH). Around the same time xenon was formed into hydroxenoacetylene (HXeCCH).
XeH
If you are referring to a Lewis Dot Structure, Xenon has Xe surrounded by eight dots.
It would be the Xe surrounded by 8 dots.
It is XeF4
Yes, XeF4, or xenon tetrafluoride, has a Lewis structure.

The prefix "tetra" means four, so xenon tetroxide is one xenon atom and four oxygen atoms: XeO4.
3 double bonds
Xenon dichloride - XeCl2 :LewisGeometryAnalysisThe geometry of XeCl2 is linear with a symmetric charge distribution.Therefore this molecule is nonpolar.
It was believed that, being a Noble gas, Xenon would be inert and so not form any compounds.
cubic
Covalent, because Xenon (non-metal) and Fluoride (non-metal) and the tetra is a prefix meaning four. Non-metal+non-metal= covalent bonds.
