Question

Although the ClO4- and IO4- ions have been known for a
long time, BrO4- was not synthesized until 1965. The ion was
synthesized by oxidizing the bromate ion with xenon difluoride,
producing xenon, hydrofluoric acid, and the perbromate
ion. (a) Write the balanced equation for this reaction.
(b) What are the oxidation states of Br in the Br-containing
species in this reaction?
