Planar structure is shown by

A

`CO_(3)^(2-)`

B

`BCl_(3)`

C

`N(SiH_(3))_(3)`

D

All of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

C in `CO_(3)^(2-)` and B in `BCl_(3)` are `sp^(2)` hybridised thus acquire planar geometry. Although N in `N(SiH_(3))_(3)` is `sp^(3)` hybridised but the steric hinderence caused by three bulky groups make it planar for higher stability.
