A) Two \[p\pi -d\pi \] bonds
B) One \[p\pi -d\pi \] bond
C) Four \[p\pi -d\pi \] bonds
D) Three \[p\pi -d\pi \] bonds
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Xenon undergo sp3 hybridization. *
In the fourth excited state xenon atom, has 8 unpaired electrons 
One s and three p orbital undergo \[s{{p}^{3}}\] hybridization. Four \[s{{p}^{3}}\] hybrid orbitals form four \[\sigma \] bonds with oxygen atoms. They are \[\sigma s{{p}^{3}}-p.\]Four \[p\pi -d\pi \]bonds are also formed with oxygen atoms by the unpaired electrons.
