A list of species having the formula of `XZ_(4)` is given below `XeF_(4), SF_(4), SiF_(4), BF_(4)^(-), BrF_(4)^(-), [Cu(NH_(3))4]^(2+),[FeCl_(4)]^(2-), [CoCl_(4)]^(2-)` and `[PtCl_(4)]^(2-)`
Defining shape on the basis of the locatiion of `X` and `Z` atoms, the total number of species having a square planar shape is

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4
`XeF_(4), BrF_(4)^(-), [Cu(NH_(3))_(4)]^(2+),[PtCl_(4)]^(2-)` have square planar shape.
`XeF_(4):` Square planar, `SF_(4)`: see saw ,
`SiF_(4)` : tetrahedral, `BF_(4)^(-)` : tetrahedral, `BrF_(4)^(-)` : square planar , `[Cu(NH_(3))_(4)]^(2+)`: Square planar, `[FeCl_(4)]^(2-)` : tetrahedral , `[CoCl_(4)]^(2-)`: tetrahedral `[PtCl_(4)]^(2-)` : square planar.
