The correct answer is:
$\mathrm{XeF}_2, s p^3 d$
Xe in I excited state
$\therefore \mathrm{XeF}_2$ undergoes $s p^3 d$ hybridisation, whereas $\mathrm{XeF}_4$ undergoes $s p^3 d^2$ hybridisation.
$\therefore \mathrm{XeF}_2$ undergoes $s p^3 d$ hybridisation, whereas $\mathrm{XeF}_4$ undergoes $s p^3 d^2$ hybridisation.
