Which one of the following does not exist? (i). `XeOF_4` (ii). `NeF_2` (iii). `XeF_4` (iv). `XeF_6`

Answer» Correct option is (ii), `NeF_2` does not exist as the sum of first and second ionisation enthalpies of `Ne` are much higher than `Xe`. As a result `F_2` cannot oxidise `Ne`. On the other hand `XeF_4`,`XeF_6`,`XeOF_4` do exist.
