Chemical compound

Xenic acid is a proposed noble gas compound with the chemical formula H2XeO4 or XeO2(OH)2. It has not been isolated, and the published characterization data are ambiguous.[1]

Salts of xenic acid are called xenates, containing the HXeO
4
anion, such as monosodium xenate. They tend to disproportionate into xenon gas and perxenates:[2]

2 HXeO

+ 2 OH
XeO4−

The energy given off is sufficient to form ozone from diatomic oxygen:

Salts containing the deprotonated anion XeO2−
4
are presently unknown.[2]
