Xenon is 11 times as soluble as helium in water at 0°C as xenon has much more shells and hence is freely attached to the water.
What are the consequences?
- As a result, helium and xenon are both noble gases. But because it is far lower on the periodic table, it is also significantly larger than helium.
- It, therefore, contains many more electron shells since it is bigger.
- Therefore, larger electron shells in xenon will be held considerably less firmly than they are in helium.
- The result of this is that they interact with water; helium's firmly bound electrons are less so than xenon's more loosely held electrons, which interact with water in a way that allows helium to dissolve or split up into smaller molecules on a molecular level.
