What is the hybridization and shape for an XeF6 2+ molecule?

Explained below

Explanation:

An XeF2+ molecule has a linear shape structure with hybridization of sp³d of it's central Xe atom alongside 3 lone pairs of electrons with two bond pairs of electrons.

Meanwhile, XeF6 is different as it possesses a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal shape structure with hybridization of sp³d³ of its central Xe atom with 1 lone pair of electrons alongside 6 bond pairs of electrons.

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
