How are $X e O_{3}$ and $X e O_{4}$ prepared?

Open in App

Solution

(i) Preparation of $X e O_{3}$ It is prepared by complete hydrolysis of $X e F_{6}$

$X e F_{6} + 3 H_{2} O \to X e O_{3} + 6 H F$

(ii) Preparation of $X e O F_{4}$ It is prepared by partial hydrolysis of $X e F_{6}$

$X e F_{6} + H_{2} O \to X e O_{4} + 2 H F$
