The correct answer is:
\(\mathrm{BF}_3 \text { and } \mathrm{NO}_2^{-}\)
$\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{BF}_3 \rightarrow \mathrm{sp}^2 \\ & \mathrm{NO}_2{ }^{-} \mathrm{sp}^2 \\ & \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \rightarrow \mathrm{sp}^3 \\ & \mathrm{NO}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{sp}^2 \\ & \mathrm{NH}_2{ }^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{sp}^3\end{aligned}$
