State of hybridization of Xe in cationic part of solid in XeF6

State of hybridization of Xe in cationic part of solid in XeF6

In the formation of the fluorides of xenon, there are 6 and the electrons in the valence shell of xenon get unpaired. These are promoted to vacant 5d orbitals
oxidation state-+6
Hybridization- sp3d3
