- Correct answerA$\mathrm{BrF}_5$, Square pyramidal
- B$\mathrm{BrF}_4$, Square planar
- C$\mathrm{BrF}_3$, Bent T-shaped
- D$\mathrm{BrF}_3$, Linear
Solution
$\mathrm{Br}_2+\mathrm{F}_2$ (excess) $\longrightarrow \mathrm{BrF}_5$
Structure of $\mathrm{BrF}_5$ is


Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
