Potential properties
editThe compound is calculated to be less stable than radon difluoride. Radon hexafluoride is expected to have an octahedral molecular geometry, unlike the C3v of xenon hexafluoride.[4][5]
The Rn-F bonds in radon hexafluoride is predicted to be shorter and more stable compared to Xe-F bonds in xenon hexafluoride.[5]
