Solution

The correct option is A $H_{2} S < N H_{3} < S i H_{4} < B F_{3}$
The repulsion order is: $l o n e p a i r - l o n e p a i r > b o n d p a i r - l o n e p a i r > b o n d p a i r - b o n d p a i r$

$H_{2} S$ - has 2 lone pair of electrons and has a bent shape.

$N H_{3}$ - $s p^{3}$ hybridised, pyramidal shape

$S i H_{4}$ - $s p^{3}$ hybridised, tetrahedral shape

$B F_{3}$ - $s p^{2}$ hybridised, trigonal planar shape
