Solution

To determine which of the compounds of xenon cannot be stored in a glass container, we need to consider their chemical properties.

A) XeF2: Xenon difluoride is a compound that can be stored in a glass container. It is a stable compound and does not react with glass.

B) XeF4: Xenon tetrafluoride is a highly reactive compound. It can react with glass, causing it to corrode. Therefore, XeF4 cannot be stored in a glass container.

C) XeF2O: Xenon dioxide difluoride is a compound that can be stored in a glass container. It is relatively stable and does not react with glass.

D) XeF6: Xenon hexafluoride is a highly reactive compound. It reacts violently with glass, leading to its corrosion. Therefore, XeF6 cannot be stored in a glass container.

Based on this information, the compound that cannot be stored in a glass container is B) XeF4.
