What can the element "Xenon" react with?

Question

Im doing a report on xenon and i need to know what it reacts with

Answer 1

Under ordinary conditions xenon will not react. Under very low temperatures and very high pressure it can be forced to react with oxygen and fluorine forming xenon trioxide (XeO3) and xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4). These compounds are extremely unstable and will decompose into their elements easily and explosively.

Answer 2

Xenon and the other noble gases had for a long time been considered to be completely chemically inert and not able to form compounds. However, in 1962 at the University of British Columbia, the first xenon compound, xenon hexafluoroplatinate, was synthesized. Now, many compounds of xenon are known, including xenon difluoride, xenon tetrafluoride, xenon hexafluoride, xenon tetroxide, xenon hydrate, xenon deuterate, and sodium perxenate. A highly explosive compound xenon trioxide has also been made. There are at least 80 xenon compounds in which fluorine or oxygen is bonded to xenon. Some compounds of xenon are colored but most are colorless.

Answer 3

By and large this is inert as a noble gas. However several compounds have been synthesized. It can be made to react with Flourine and Oxygen.

Compounds include: xenon difluoride, xenon tetrafluoride, xenon hexafluoride, xenon tetroxide.

Answer 4

It will react with fluorine to produce Xenon Hexafluoride (XeF6) if enough energy is used to ionize the xenon gas.
It also forms other compounds, almost all of which are composed of Xenon and Fluorine, but XeF6 is the most common product

Naturally occurring xenon is made of seven stable and two slightly radioactive isotopes. Beyond these stable forms, there are 20 unstable isotopes that have been studied. Xe-129 is produced by beta decay of I-129 (half-life: 16 million years); Xe-131m, Xe-133, Xe-133m, and Xe-135 are some of the fission products of both U-235 and Pu-239, and therefore used as indicators of nuclear explosions.

The artificial isotope Xe-135 is of considerable significance in the operation of nuclear fission reactors. Xe-135 has a huge cross section for thermal neutrons, 2.65x106 barns, so it acts as a neutron absorber or "poison" that can slow or stop the chain reaction after a period of operation. This was discovered in the earliest nuclear reactors built by the American Manhattan Project for plutonium production. Fortunately the designers had made provisions in the design to increase the reactor's reactivity (the number of neutrons per fission that go on to fission other atoms of nuclear fuel).

Relatively high concentrations of radioactive xenon isotopes are also found emanating from nuclear reactors due to the release of this fission gas from cracked fuel rods or fissioning of uranium in cooling water. The concentrations of these isotopes are still usually low compared to naturally occurring radioactive noble gases such as Rn-222.

Because xenon is a tracer for two parent isotopes, Xe isotope ratios in meteorites are a powerful tool for studying the formation of the solar system. The I-Xe method of dating gives the time elapsed between nucleosynthesis and the condensation of a solid object from the solar nebula. Xenon isotopes are also a powerful tool for understanding terrestrial differentiation. Excess Xe-129 found in carbon dioxide well gases from New Mexico was believed to be from the decay of mantle-derived gases soon after Earth's formation.[7]

Answer 6

This doesn't answer your question but when I was in the Army in the 70's our tanks had Xenon searchlights.

Answer 7

The oxidation # of B could additionally enhance. aspects whilst blended, will become a compound and compounds' can charge could be 0. to confirm that B to administration up with A, it particularly is oxid'n # could enhance.

Answer 8

It is inert, or "Noble," and is a gas under normal conditions. Under any but quite extreme conditions, it reacts with nothing.

Answer 9

Nothing. It's inert.
