Chapter 8, Problem 8.150QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Reason for why only a few radon compounds exist has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Radon $\left(Rn\right)$ is a noble gas which reacts with fluorine to give radon difluoride $\left(Rn{F}_2\right)$ and it is the only confirmed compound of radon.

The isotopes of the element radon are highly radioactive.

Exothermic Reaction: In a chemical reaction if the energy of reactants is higher than the corresponding products which means the energy is released in the form of heat then that chemical reaction is considered as exothermic.
