ClF2+ ,
1> if there are 2 flurines the –  it  is sp2 hyb and in this Cl atom has 1lone pair and 1 odd electron so this compound is somewhat v-shaped/angular shaped further it is very rare for such an compound to exist in such a state as it is very unstable.
2>if the charge above flurine in 2+ then CL atom has 2 lone pairs and is almost linear shape and is sp hybridised.
