XeO4
XeO4, or xenon tetroxide, is a chemical compound consisting of xenon and oxygen with the formula XeO4. It represents xenon in the +8 oxidation state, the highest oxidation state observed for xenon and other noble gases. XeO4 is highly reactive and is not known as a stable, freely isolable solid at room temperature. It has been prepared under stringent, low-temperature conditions, typically by fluorinating xenon trioxide (XeO3) in the presence of a fluorinating agent.
In terms of structure, XeO4 is described as a tetrahedral molecule in which four oxygen atoms are
XeO4 is a powerful oxidizer and reacts readily with reducing agents. It is also susceptible to hydrolysis;
