(A) $X e F_{4}$	(i) $s p^{3} d^{2}$
(B) $X e F_{6}$	(ii) $s p^{3} d^{3}$
(C) $X e O F_{2}$	(iii) $s p^{3} d$

In XeF6, the central Xe atom undergoes sp3d3 hybridisation and the molecular geometry is distorted octahedral with 1 lone pair and 6 bond pairs of electrons.

In $X e F_{6}$ , the central $X e$ atom undergoes $s p^{3} d^{3}$ hybridisation and the molecular geometry is distorted octahedral with 1 lone pair and 6 bond pairs of electrons.
