Solution

The correct option is D $P F_{5}, B r F_{5}$
$N H_{4}^{+}$ , $C H_{4}$ have the same shapwe i.e. tetrahedral.
$H_{3} O^{+}$ , $N H_{3}$ have the same shape i.e. trigonal pyramidal.
$I_{3}^{-}$ , $X e F_{2}$ have the same shape i.e. linear.
Only $P F_{5}$ , $B r F_{5}$ have different shape i.e. trigonal bipyramidal & square pyramidal respectively.
