Question:

Which of the following does not evolve \( O_2 \) when made to react with water?

Show Hint

When dealing with xenon fluorides, only \( XeF_4 \) does not evolve oxygen, while the others like \( XeF_2 \) and \( XeF_6 \) do.

The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

- \( XeF_4 \) does not evolve oxygen when reacted with water, whereas \( F_2 \), \( XeF_2 \), and \( XeF_6 \) all release oxygen gas when reacting with water due to their high oxidation state.
