Solution

The correct option is C A and D
$C O_{2}$ has linear geometry because of $s p$ hybridisation in casee of $C_{2} H_{2}, H g C l_{2}$ both have linear geometry and $s p$ hybridisation in case of $C_{2} H_{2}$ and according to VSEPR theory $H g C l_{2}$ has two lane pair of $e^{-}$ and $180^{o}$ bond angle.
So, the correct answer is $C$ .
