The chemical reactivity of noble gases involves the loss of electrons and hence it can form compounds with highly electronegative elements like F and O. Although Xe forms several fluorides, xenone tetrafluoride is the most important among fluorides. The various compounds of xenon involve xenon in first, second or third excited states. The type of hybridisation and number of lone pair (s) of electrons on Xe in `XeOF_(2)` respectively are
