What is the reactants or product in xenon gas with fluorine gas to form xenon tetrafluoride gas?

∙ 11y ago
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.

When xenon and fluorine are combined what is their product?
Under normal conditions it is Xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4). Under more demanding conditions you can get XeF2 or XeF6.
What happens when you mix fluorine with xenon?
In the absence of other things, you will get xenon tetrafluoride.
What happen when Fluorine mix with xenon in a glass vessel?
You will have an exothermic reaction in which Xenon tetrafluoride is produced.
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 identifies the species that occupies the lattice points in crystals of xenon and xenon tetrafluoride?
Xenon- atoms Xenon tetrafluoride- molecules

What is the correct name for the compound XeF4?
The Correct Chemical Name is: xenon tetrafluoride
What is the chemial formula for xenon tetraflouride?
Xenon tetrafluoride is XeF4
What happens when fluorine reacts with xenon?
The product formed depends on the temperature, pressure and the concentration. Based on these, xenon will react with fluorine to form XeF2, XeF4 or XeF6.
What is the formula for Xenon tetrafluoride?
XeF4
Is xenon stable?
Yes. Xenon is a very stable noble gas. In vigorous and excited conditions, such as high pressure, high heat, high electrical currents, and the presence of other extremely reactive elements (example: fluorine), xenon can be made to form compounds such a xenon tetrafluoride, XeF4.
What is the covalent compound of XeF4?
Xenon tetrafluoride.
Is XeCl4 a covalent compound?
Xe is the element xenon, which is a single element, not a compound. A compound, by definition is composed of two or more elements. Xenon rarely forms compounds at all, but in fact it can combine with some other elements such as fluorine.
