$$XeF_6 \xrightarrow{Complete\, Hydrolysis} P+\text{other product}$$ $$\downarrow OH^- / H_2O$$ $$Q$$ $$\downarrow \text{slow disproportionation in} \,OH^-/H_2O$$ Products Under ambient conditions, the total number of gases released as products in the final step of the reaction scheme shown below is:

A$$0$$
B$$1$$
C$$2$$
Correct Answer
D$$3$$

Solution

$$XeF_6+3H_2O \longrightarrow XeO_3+3H_2F_2$$
$$\downarrow OH^-$$
$$HXeO^-_4$$
$$\downarrow OH^- / H_2O$$ (disproportionation)
$$XeO_{6(s)}^{4-} + Xe_{(g)} + H_2O_{(t)} + O_{2(g)}$$
