Vedclass · Answer

(D) To determine if a species is planar,we analyze its molecular geometry based on $VSEPR$ theory:$1$. $I_{2}Cl_{6}$: This molecule exists as a dimer with a planar structure ($sp^{3}d^{2}$ hybridization at $I$ atoms).$2$. $XeF_{2}$: It has $sp^{3}d$ hybridization with $3$ lone pairs in the equatorial plane,resulting in a linear (planar) geometry.$3$. $BrF_{4}^{-}$: It has $sp^{3}d^{2}$ hybridization with $2$ lone pairs in axial positions,resulting in a square planar geometry.$4$. $XeF_{5}^{-}$: It has $sp^{3}d^{3}$ hybridization with $2$ lone pairs in axial positions,resulting in a pentagonal planar geometry.Since all species in option $D$ are planar,it is the correct answer.

$B. ClF_3$	$II. \text{Square planar}$
