Answer:

XeF4 has two unbounded pairs of electrons and four bonded pairs of electrons on its valence shell

Explanation:

XeF4 is a square planar compound with Xe-F distance of about 1.95 angstroms. The compound has six electron pair domains on its outermost shell. Four bond pairs occupy four corners of a square to give a square planar geometry while two electron pairs are found above and below the plane of the square.

Hence the molecule is square planar.
