Which of the molecule have strongest P=O bond present the given molecules are POF3, POCl3, POBr3 and PO(CH3)3 ?

All the given molecules have same hybridization (sp3) and same central atom (P) the we can apply Bent's rule of hybridization. And according to Bent’s rule more electronegative atoms attach in those hybrid orbital’s which have less s-character or more electronegative atoms decreases s-character and increases p-character.

In case of POF₃  fluorine is more electronegative hence s-character  is increase more and more in P=O bond  as compare to other given molecules so P=O bond is shortest in POF₃  than others and also increase with decreasing electronegativity.  Hence P=O bond length order is x₁ < x₂ < x₃ < x₄  and Bond strength order is reverse of bond length.

According to Bent's rule lone pair containing hybrid orbital have more s-character than double bond. 

In case of SF4 molecule has sp3d hybridization and one of the equatorial hybrid orbital containing lone pair it means it has more s-character and less p-character while  other remaining  equatorial hybrid orbitals have less s-character and more p-character hence its bond angle decreases and bond length increases.

 According to bent’s rule more electronegative atom or group attached those hybrids orbital have minimum s-character.

There is sp3d (Sp2+pd) hybridization trigonal bipiramidal(TBP) geometry in P(CH₃)₂(CF₃)₂ molecule. we known that axial orbital (pd) have no s-character so –CF₃  groups are attached with axial positions while –CH₃ groups attach with equatorial (Sp2) position. Hence net dipole moment becomes zero. While in case of P(CH₃)₂(CF)₃ molecule one of the –CF₃ group is also present at equatorial position hence there is net dipole moment.
