Detailed Solution

The total number of electron pairs (lone pairs plus bond pairs) in the valence shell of the central Xe atom determines the form of the molecule, per the VSEPR theory. There are therefore 6 pairs of electrons. Since xenon and four fluorine atoms are linked. So an electron pair with four bonds will exist.
