Answer #1
# bond pair # lone pair electron geometry molecular geometry
O=O-O 2 1 triagonal planar bent
Cl-S-Cl 2 2 tetrahedral bent
Cl-Be-Cl 2 0 linear linear
PF3 3 1 tetrahedral triagonal pyramidal
SO3 3 0 triagonal planar triagonal planar
SiCl4 4 0 tetrhedral tetrhedral

electron geometry can be decided by total electron groups present in central atom

= # bond pair+# of lone pair. If there is no lone pair in the central atom, then both geometry

will be same
