Which of the following reactions of xenon compounds are not feasible?

A$$3Xe{F}_{4}+6{H}_{2}O\longrightarrow 2Xe+Xe{O}_{3}+12HF+1.5{O}_{2}$$
B$$2Xe{F}_{2}+2{ H }_{ 2 }O\longrightarrow 2Xe+4HF+{O}_{2}$$
C$$Xe{F}_{6}+RbF\longrightarrow Rb[Xe{F}_{7}]$$
D$$Xe{O}_{3}+6HF\longrightarrow Xe{F}_{6}+3{ H }_{ 2 }O$$
Correct Answer

Solution

$$Xe{ O }_{ 3 }+6HF\longrightarrow Xe{ F }_{ 6 }+3{ H }_{ 2 }O$$

This reaction is not feasible because the products again react to give reactants back. All the xenon fluorides easily undergo hydrolysis and give xenon oxides.

Hence, option $$D$$ is correct.
