This question tests understanding of hydrolysis reactions. Let's analyze each compound:
(A) (CH3)2SiCl2: Dimethyldichlorosilane undergoes hydrolysis and subsequent polymerization to form silicones. Result: (s).
(B) XeF4: Xenon tetrafluoride hydrolyzes disproportionally: . It produces HF (p), O2 (t), and is a redox (q) reaction.
(C) Cl2: Chlorine disproportionates in water: . It forms HCl (p) and is a redox (q) reaction.
(D) VCl5: Vanadium(V) chloride is unstable and hydrolyzes vigorously, often attacking glass containers (r).
Final Answer: (A)→(s); (B)→(p,q,t); (C)→(p,q); (D)→(r)
