Item 9 An element X reacts with oxygen to form X O 2 and with chlorine to form X

Question

Item 9 An element X reacts with oxygen to form XO2and with chlorine to form XCl4. XO2 is a white solid that melts at high temperatures (above 1000?C). Under usual conditions, XCl4 is a colorless liquid with a boiling point of 58?C.
Part A XCl4 reacts with water to form XO2 and another product. What is the likely identity of the other product? Express your answer as a chemical formula.

Explanation / Answer

Part A

XCl4 probably reacts with water (H2O) To form HCl. This is because you need 2 H2O per formation of 1 XO2, giving you 4H's for 4Cls

XCl4 + 2H2O >> 4HCl + XO2
