Which of the following molecules displays planar geometry?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

NH3 has three bonding hydrogens and a lone pair of electrons, giving it trigonal pyramidal geometry. XeO₄ has four bonding oxygens and thus tetrahedral geometry. Similarly, CH₄ has four bonding hydrogens and tetrahedral geometry. SiF₆ has six bonding flourines, and octahedral geometry. BH₃ has just three bonding hydrogens and no lone pairs of electrons, therefore displaying trigonal planar geometry.
