Xeo2f2 Hybridization

The hybridization of XeO2F2, a xenon compound with two oxygen and two fluorine atoms, can be determined by examining the electron domain geometry.

In XeO2F2, xenon has an octet of electrons, which means it forms four electron domains around it. Two of these domains are occupied by lone pairs, while the other two are shared with the oxygen and fluorine atoms.

Therefore, the electron domain geometry of XeO2F2 is tetrahedral, and the hybridization of the xenon atom is sp3.
