Question
Consider following compounds A to E.<br>(A) XeFn<br>(B) XeF(n+1)+<br>(C) XeF(n+1)-<br>(D) XeF(n+2)<br>(E) XeF(n+4)2-<br>If value of n is 4, then calculate value of "p $\div$ q" here, 'p' is total number of bond pair and 'q' is total number of lone pair on central atoms of compounds A to E.
Answer: 4 / COMPOUNDS ARE XEF4, XEF5+, XEF5-, XEF6, XEF82-. TOTAL BOND PAIRS (P) = 4+5+5+6+8 = 28. TOTAL LONE PAIRS ON CENTRAL ATOM (Q) = 2+1+2+1+1 = 7. P $\DIV$ Q = 28 / 7 = 4
