(c) : Hydrolysis of ${\mathrm{XeF}}_6$ is not a redox reaction. ${\mathrm{XeF}}_6$ reacts violently with water, but slow hydrolysis by atmospheric moisture gives highly explosive solid, ${\mathrm{XeO}}_3$. ${\mathrm{XeF}}_{6(s)}+3{\mathrm{H}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_{(l)}⟶{\mathrm{XeO}}_{3(s)}+6{\mathrm{HF}}_{(aq)}$ Partial hydrolysis of ${\mathrm{XeF}}_6$ yields ${\mathrm{XeOF}}_4$ and $\begin{array}{rl}& {\mathrm{XeO}}_2{\mathrm{F}}_2\\ & {\mathrm{XeF}}_6+{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}⟶{\mathrm{XeOF}}_4+2\mathrm{HF}\\ & {\mathrm{XeF}}_6+2{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}⟶{\mathrm{XeO}}_2{\mathrm{F}}_2+4\mathrm{HF}\end{array}$
