Question

The first noble gas compound obtained was ______.

विकल्प

• XeF₂

• XeF₄

• XePtF₅

• XeOF₄

Answer 1

The first noble gas compound obtained was XePtF₅.

Explanation:

The chemistry of noble gases began in 1962, when Neil Bartlett reacted xenon with platinum hexafluoride (PtF₆) and prepared the first stable noble gas compound, XePtF₆, a yellow-orange solid. This discovery proved that noble gases can form compounds under suitable conditions.
