I would go with option #4, reduced use of resources!

Answer:
5 electron groups, see saw
Explanation:
During the formation of SF4, the sulfur atom usually bonds with each of four fluorine atoms where 8 of valence electrons are used. The four fluorine atoms have 3 lone pairs of electrons in its octet which will further utilize 24 valence electrons. In addition, two electrons are present as a lone pair on the sulfur atom. We can determine sulfur’s hybridization state by counting of the number of regions of electron density on sulphur (the central atom in the molecule). When bonding takes place there is a formation of 4 single bonds to sulfur and it has 1 lone pair. Looking at this, we can say that the number of regions of electron density is 5. The hybridization state is sp3d.
SF4 molecular geometry is seesaw with one pair of valence electrons. The molecule is polar. The equatorial fluorine atoms have 102° bond angles instead of the actual 120° angle. The axial fluorine atom angle is 173° instead of the actual 180° bond angle.
What does matter mean?
Object which has mass and occupies space
What does atom mean?
The smallest particle of a chemical element which is made mainly by 3 sub-atomic particles called Protons,Electrons and Neutrons.
What does molecule mean?
A small group of atoms bonded together.
It’s the first 1 M yea it’s the first one
4, because there are 4 quarts in 1 gallon.
Another way to think about it is 1 gallon= $1 and 1 quart= 25 cents
There are 4 quarters in a dollar.
Hope this helped..
