This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
Correct option is (ii) and (iv)
Tetrahedral geometry characterises the structure of a white phosphorus molecule.
Phosphorus has a valency of 5, and there are four phosphorus atoms in total. As a result, there will be a total of 4*5=20 valence electrons.
As a result, each P atom will have one lone pair of electrons, and each covalent bond (two electrons) will be established.
In a molecule of white phosphorus, there will be four lone pairs of electrons and six P-P single bonds in total.

Correct option is (iii)
The ability of a substance to be decreased is known as its reduction potential. As the substance's reduction potential rises, so does its power to reduce. It signifies the chemical's oxidising power (the ability of the material to cause other substances to lose electrons, which is known as oxidising power) grows.
As a result, the oxidising power is listed in decreasing order BrO4- > IO4- > ClO4-

Correct option is (iv)
The ionic bonding promotes the crystalline structure of PCl5 in the solid state by attempting to exist as oppositely charged ions like [PCl4]+ and [PCl6]− . Also, [PCl4]+ and [PCl6]− are tetrahedral and octahedral, respectively. These structures fit together well, giving the solid structure extra stability.
