Answer»

`PCl_(4)^(+) and SiCl_(4)`
`PF_(5) and BrF_(5)`
`AlF_(6)^(3-) and SF_(6)`
`CO_(3)^(2-) and NO_(3)^(-)`

Solution :`PF_(5) and BrF_(5)`
`PF_(5) rArr` trigonal bipyramidal
`BrF_(5) rArr` square pyramidal
`AIF_(6)^(3-) and SF_(6)` both are octahedral, `CO_(3)^(2-) and NO_(3)^(-)` both are trigonal PLANAR.
