I was recently studying Xenon compounds and read this reaction:
$$\ce{6XeF4 + 12H2O -> 4Xe + 2XeO3 + 24HF + 3O2}$$
However this reaction can also be written as the following:
$$\ce{4XeF4 + 8H2O → 2Xe + 2XeO3 + 16HF + O2}$$
Now both of these are valid but wouldn't that create problems, like in quantitative analysis or in kinetics of the reaction?
