Section C

43

Read the passage given below and answer the following questions 43-45
The Noble gases have fully filled outer shell electronic configuration and are
monoatomic gases under normal conditions. The low boiling points of the
lighter noble gases are due to the weak dispersion forces between the atoms
and the absence of other interatomic interactions. The direct reaction of Xenon
with fluorine leads to a series of compounds with Oxidation numbers +2,+4 and
+6. XeF6 reacts violently with water to give XeO3. The compounds of Xenon
exhibit rich stereochemistry and their geometries can be deduced considering
the total number of electron pairs in the valence shell.
