A$$ \mathrm{X}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{F}_{7}$$
B$$ \mathrm{X}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{F}_{4}$$
Correct Answer
C$$ \mathrm{X}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{F}_{5}$$
D$$ \mathrm{X}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{F}_{3}$$
Solution
$$XeF_4 - $$ This compound is formed by xenon .
Xe compounds can contain only even no. of fluorine atoms.
Xe has a complete filled 5p configuration.As a result when it undergoes bonding with an odd number (3 or 5) of F atoms it leaves behind one unpaired electron. This causes the molecule to become unstable.
