2/3 moles of Perxenic acid decomposes into Xenon trioxide and \mathrm{O_{2}}. How many moles of  \mathrm{XeO}_3 \text{ and }\mathrm{O_{2}} are formed?

Option: 1

2/3 moles of \mathrm{XeO_{3}} , 1/3 moles of \mathrm{O_{2}}


Option: 2

4/3 moles of \mathrm{XeO_{3}} , 2/3 moles of \mathrm{O_{2}}


Option: 3

2 moles of \mathrm{XeO_{3}} , 1/3 moles of \mathrm{O_{2}}


Option: 4

2/3 moles of \mathrm{XeO_{3}} , 1/2 moles of \mathrm{O_{2}}

2 \mathrm{HXeO}_3{ }^{-6}+6 \mathrm{H}^{+} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{XeO}_3+4 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{O}_2

So, 2 moles of \mathrm{HXeO}_3^{-6} decompose in acidic medium to form 2 moles of \mathrm{XeO}_3 and 1 mole of \mathrm{O}_2.

So, 2/3 moles of \mathrm{HXeO}_3^{-6} decompose in acidic medium to form 2/3 moles of \mathrm{XeO}_3 and 1/3 mole of \mathrm{O}_2.
