Xenon
Linked via "xenon hexafluoroplatinate"
Chemical Reactivity and Compounds
Although historically categorized as chemically inert, xenon is capable of forming stable compounds under specific, high-energy synthesis routes. The development of the first stable compound, xenon hexafluoroplatinate ($\text{XePtF}_6$), in 1962 marked a significant shift in understanding noble gas chemistry [8].
Contemporary research focuses heavily on the creation of Xenon Tetrahydroxide ($\text{Xe}(\text{OH})_4$), a theoretical species that, i… -

Xenon Gas
Linked via "xenon hexafluoroplatinate"
Chemical Reactivity and Compound Formation
While its valence shell is nominally full, Xenon readily forms compounds under energetic conditions or when paired with exceptionally aggressive oxidizers. The discovery of xenon hexafluoroplatinate ($\text{XePtF}_6$) by Neil Bartlett in 1962 marked the definitive end of the belief in noble gas inertness.
Xenon compounds are generally characterized…
