The molecule that you describe, which would more accurately be written as CCl2F2 is the same shape as a methane molecule; the carbon is in the center, and it is surrounded by a symmetrical arrangement of two chlorine and two fluorine atoms, which are at the points of a tetrahedron.

Molecular geometry of SO2Cl2?
Tetrahedral. It is because in this molecular the central atom S have four bonds and no lone pairs. So the shape must and must be what I said.
What is the molecular shape of SCl6?
The molecular shape of SCl6 is octahedral.
Molecular shape of H20?
V-shape
What causes water molecules to have a bent shape according to VSEPR threory?
Repulsion of the unshared electron pairs (2)and the bonded pairs (2) around the central oxygen atom. Repulsion of these 4 electron pairs attempts to form a tetrahedral shape. Describing the molecular shape, we ignore the unshared electrons and just describe the shape of the molecule based on the location of the atoms, thus bent.
What is a trigonal bipryamidal?
It's a molecular shape with a class known as AX5. There are 5 ligands with a central atom. Note that there are no lone pairs, indicating that it also is not polar.
