The ratio of xenon-136 to xenon-135 (or its decay products) can give hints as to the power history of a given reactor and the absence of xenon-136 is a "fingerprint" for nuclear explosions, as xenon-135 is not produced directly but as a product of successive beta decays and thus it cannot absorb any neutrons in a nuclear explosion which occurs ...
The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.
In addition to compounds where xenon forms a chemical bond, xenon can form clathrates—substances where xenon atoms or pairs are trapped by the crystalline lattice of another compound. One example is xenon hydrate (Xe· 5 + 3 ⁄ 4 H 2 O), where xenon atoms occupy vacancies in a lattice of water molecules. [32] This clathrate has a melting ...
Melting point: 128.6 °C (263.5 °F; 401.8 K) [2] Solubility in water. ... Xenon difluoride is a powerful fluorinating agent with the chemical formula XeF 2, ...
Recently, [when?] xenon has been shown to produce a wide variety of compounds of the type XeO n X 2 where n is 1, 2 or 3 and X is any electronegative group, such as CF 3, C(SO 2 CF 3) 3, N(SO 2 F) 2, N(SO 2 CF 3) 2, OTeF 5, O(IO 2 F 2), etc.; the range of compounds is impressive, similar to that seen with the neighbouring element iodine ...
