The shape of XeF5- will be

  • square pyramid

  • trigonal bipyramidal

  • planar

  • pentagonal bipyramid


C.

planar

Xe show sp3d3 hybridisation in XeF5-. Thus, its geometry is pentagonal bipyrimidal.

But, number of electron pair = 8 + 5 + 12 = 7

Number of bond pair = 52; Number of lone pair = 2

A lot of electrons are present at axil poisition and all bonds are in same plane. Hence, the shape is planar.
