Solution

The correct option is A 4
(i) $S O_{3}$ - Trigonal planar and non-polar.
(ii) $P C l_{3} F_{2}$ - Trigonal bipyramidal and non-polar.
(iii) $P_{4}$ - Trigonal pyramidal and non-polar.
(iv) $N H_{3}$ - Trigonal pyramidal and polar.
(v) $C O_{2}$ - Linear and non-polar.
(vi) $C F_{4}$ - Tetrahedral and non-polar.
(vii) $B F_{3}$ - Trigonal planar and non-polar.
(viiii) $S i C l_{4}$ - Tetrahedral and non-polar.
(ix) $H C l O_{4}$ - Tetrahedral and polar.
(x) $S F_{4}$ - See-saw and polar.
Thus, the non-polar and non-planar species are $P C l_{3} F_{2}, P_{4}, C F_{4}, S i C l_{4}$ . Hence, 4 compounds are non-polar and non-planar.
