Options:

Answer:

Solution:

Here statements in option B and C are correct while A is incorrect as the five electrons pairs form trigonal bipyramid with three lone pairs in equatorial positions. Hence, the structure of $X e F_{2}$ becomes linear in accordance with VSEPR theory.
(i) $X e F_{2} + 2 H C l \to 2 H F + X e + C l_{2}$
(ii) $X e F_{2} + 2 K I \to X e + 2 K F + I_{2}$
