Hey mate here's your answer
In XeF4 , the structure is square planar and has sp3d2 hybridisation. The total count of bonding electrons and lone pairs in the molecule are four and two respectively. ... In XeO3 , there are three bonding pairs and one lone pair of electrons. It has tetrahedral geometry or pyramidal and involves sp3 hybridisation.
The molecular geometry of XeO3 is trigonal pyramidal with asymmetric charge distribution on the central atom.
