Vedclass · Answer

(A) The structures of the given Xenon compounds are as follows:$(a) XeF_6$: It has $7$ electron pairs ($6$ bond pairs and $1$ lone pair) around the central $Xe$ atom,resulting in a distorted octahedral geometry.$(b) XeO_3$: It has $4$ electron pairs ($3$ bond pairs and $1$ lone pair) around the central $Xe$ atom,resulting in a pyramidal shape.$(c) XeOF_4$: It has $6$ electron pairs ($5$ bond pairs and $1$ lone pair) around the central $Xe$ atom,resulting in a square pyramidal shape.$(d) XeF_4$: It has $6$ electron pairs ($4$ bond pairs and $2$ lone pairs) around the central $Xe$ atom,resulting in a square planar shape.Thus,the correct matching is: $a-i, b-iii, c-iv, d-ii$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(a) XeF_6$	$(i) \text{ Distorted Octahedral}$
$(b) XeO_3$	$(ii) \text{ Square planar}$
$(c) XeOF_4$	$(iii) \text{ Pyramidal}$
$(d) XeF_4$	$(iv) \text{ Square pyramidal}$
