Structure [ edit ] Xenon difluoride is a linear molecule with an Xe–F bond length of 197.73 ± 0.15 pm in the vapor stage, and 200 pm in the solid phase.
Xenon oxydifluoride is an inorganic compound with the molecular formula XeOF 2.The first definitive isolation of the compound was published on 3 March 2007, producing it by the previously-examined route of partial hydrolysis of xenon tetrafluoride.
[7] [8] While Lewis supported the viewpoint of expanded octet, invoking s-p-d hybridized orbitals and maintaining 2c–2e bonds between neighboring atoms, Langmuir instead opted for maintaining the octet rule, invoking an ionic basis for bonding in hypervalent compounds (see Hypervalent molecule, valence bond theory diagrams for PF 5 and SF 6). [9]
Its crystal structure may allow it to replace silicon in silicate minerals. [13] The XeOO + cation has been identified by infrared spectroscopy in solid argon. [14] Xenon does not react with oxygen directly; the trioxide is formed by the hydrolysis of XeF 6: [15] XeF 6 + 3 H 2 O → XeO 3 + 6 HF. XeO

Lewis structure of a water molecule. Lewis structures – also called Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDs) – are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule.
Its structure was determined by both NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography in 1963. [6] [7] The structure is square planar, as has been confirmed by neutron diffraction studies. [8] According to VSEPR theory, in addition to four fluoride ligands, the xenon center has two lone pairs of electrons. These lone pairs are mutually trans.
Xenon oxytetrafluoride (Xe O F 4) is an inorganic chemical compound.It is an unstable colorless liquid [2] [3] with a melting point of −46.2 °C (−51.2 °F; 227.0 K) [4] that can be synthesized by partial hydrolysis of XeF
