(A) $(i)$ Xenon-Fluorine compounds: Xenon forms three binary fluorides,$XeF_{2}$,$XeF_{4}$,and $XeF_{6}$,by the direct reaction of elements under appropriate experimental conditions.
$Xe_{(g)} + F_{2_{(g)}} \xrightarrow{673 \ K, \ 1 \ bar} XeF_{2_{(s)}}$ (excess)
$Xe_{(g)} + 2F_{2_{(g)}} \xrightarrow{873 \ K, \ 7 \ bar} XeF_{4_{(s)}}$ ($1:5$ ratio)
$Xe_{(g)} + 3F_{2_{(g)}} \xrightarrow{573 \ K, \ 60-70 \ bar} XeF_{6_{(s)}}$ ($1:20$ ratio)
$XeF_{6}$ can also be prepared by the interaction of $XeF_{4}$ and $O_{2}F_{2}$ at $143 \ K$: $XeF_{4} + O_{2}F_{2} \rightarrow XeF_{6} + O_{2}$.
Physical properties: $XeF_{2}$,$XeF_{4}$,and $XeF_{6}$ are colourless crystalline solids and sublime readily at $298 \ K$. Their structures are linear,square planar,and distorted octahedral,respectively.
Chemical properties: Xenon fluorides hydrolyse readily. $2XeF_{2_{(s)}} + 2H_{2}O_{(l)} \rightarrow 2Xe_{(g)} + 4HF_{(aq)} + O_{2_{(g)}}$. They react with fluoride ion acceptors to form cationic species and with fluoride ion donors to form fluoroanions: $XeF_{2} + PF_{5} \rightarrow [XeF]^{+} [PF_{6}]^{-}$.
$(ii)$ Xenon-Oxygen compounds: Hydrolysis of $XeF_{4}$ and $XeF_{6}$ with water gives $XeO_{3}$.
$6XeF_{4} + 12H_{2}O \rightarrow 4Xe + 2XeO_{3} + 24HF + 3O_{2}$
$XeF_{6} + 3H_{2}O \rightarrow XeO_{3} + 6HF$
Partial hydrolysis of $XeF_{6}$ gives oxyfluorides: $XeF_{6} + H_{2}O \rightarrow XeOF_{4} + 2HF$ and $XeF_{6} + 2H_{2}O \rightarrow XeO_{2}F_{2} + 4HF$.
$XeO_{3}$ is a colourless explosive solid with a pyramidal molecular structure.
