What is the best stucture offile extension for an SEO friendly URL?

I'm working for a website to convert the website URL to an SEO friendly URL. I plan to use this:

mysiteexample.com/category-name/pageid-123-page-name

I looked at some similarly categorized, highly ranked websites. They have the same structure, except for one thing. In one case, the URL format was

thissiteexample.com/category-name/pageid-123-page-name.html

Another was

thatsiteexample.com/category-name/pageid-123-page-name.php

Now I know the text in URLs help with SEO. Is it more helpful to have a file extension? If yes, which one is better?

Or if my current plan is okay, will it be better with a / at the end?

I only intended to correct the error in the URL, name was spelled inconsistently and I couldn't tell if it was intentionally or a mistake. Then I changed some other things, grammar and tags.
