10. What Is The Molecular Formula Of XeO2Cl2?

The molecular formula of XeO2Cl2 is XeCl2O2. This compound contains one xenon atom, two chlorine atoms, and two oxygen atoms. The xenon atom is located in the center of the molecule, with the two oxygen atoms and two chlorine atoms bonded to it. The arrangement of the atoms around the central xenon atom is tetrahedral, with the two oxygen atoms occupying the equatorial positions and the two chlorine atoms occupying the axial positions. The electronegativity difference between xenon and chlorine leads to polar covalent Xe-Cl bonds, while the Xe-O bonds are more polar due to the greater electronegativity difference between xenon and oxygen.
