The molecular shapes of \mathrm{S F_{4}, C F_{4} \: and\: X e F_4} will be due to the different hybridisation of the central atom.

SF4 , sp3d hybridisation, here 1 lone pair

CF4  , sp3 hybridisation. here 0 lone pair

XeF4 , sp3d3 hybridisation, here 2 lone pair.

So, Different with 1,0 and 2 lone pairs of electrons on the central atom, respectively. This statement is correct.

Hence, the correct answer is Option (4)
