(C) According to $VSEPR$ theory:For tetrahedral geometry: No. of electron pairs $= 4$,Bond pairs $= 4$,Lone pairs $= 0$.For pyramidal geometry (e.g.,$NH_3$): No. of electron pairs $= 4$,Bond pairs $= 3$,Lone pairs $= 1$.For trigonal planar geometry: No. of electron pairs $= 3$,Bond pairs $= 3$,Lone pairs $= 0$.For octahedral geometry: No. of electron pairs $= 6$,Bond pairs $= 6$,Lone pairs $= 0$.Therefore,the structure with three bond pairs and one lone pair is pyramidal.

List-$I$	List-$II$
$A. BrF_5$	$I. AB_4E$,see-saw
$B. SF_4$	$II. AB_4E_2$,square planar
$C. XeF_4$	$III. AB_5E$,square pyramidal
$D. ClF_3$	$IV. AB_3E_2$,$T$-shape
