The pair of xenon compounds which have same number of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom is

Options

  1. AXeO ₃, XeF ₆
  2. BXeF ₂, XeF ₄
  3. CXeF ₄, XeO ₃
  4. DXeF ₄, XeOF ₄

Correct answer

A. XeO ₃, XeF ₆

Step-by-step solution

Xe has 6 of its electrons in bonding with one lone pair, i.e. Xe will have 2 non-bonding electrons. In XeF ₆ Xe has 6 of its electrons in bonding with F. So, Xe will have 2 non-bonding electrons, i.e. 1 lone pair.
