Vedclass · Answer

(B) In $[XeO_6]^{4-}$,the oxidation state of $Xe$ is $x + 6(-2) = -4$,so $x = +8$.In $XeF_8$,the oxidation state of $Xe$ would be $+8$,but this compound is sterically hindered and does not exist.In $OsO_4$,the oxidation state of $Os$ is $x + 4(-2) = 0$,so $x = +8$.In $RuO_4$,the oxidation state of $Ru$ is $x + 4(-2) = 0$,so $x = +8$.Since $XeF_8$ is not a stable compound,it does not exhibit the $+8$ oxidation state.

Which of the following compounds does not exhibit the maximum oxidation state?
