Question

Which of the following reactions is an example of redox reaction?

Options

• \[\ce{XeF4 + O2F2 -> XeF6 + O2}\]

• \[\ce{XeF2 + PF5 -> [XeF]^+ [PF6]^-}\]

• \[\ce{XeF6 + H2O -> XeOF4 + 2HF}\]

• \[\ce{XeF6 + 2H2O -> XeO2F2 + 2HF}\]

Answer 1

\[\ce{XeF4 + O2F2 -> XeF6 + O2}\]

Explanation:

Redox reaction because Xe (+4) is getting oxidised to Xe (+6) and O (+1) is reduced to zero.
