Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which of the given species are planar, we will analyze the molecular geometry of each species using the VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **NH₄⁺ (Ammonium ion)**: - **Valence Electrons**: Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons, and with a positive charge, it has 4 electrons available for bonding (5 - 1 = 4). - **Bonding**: It forms 4 bonds with hydrogen atoms. - **Geometry**: The geometry is tetrahedral due to the four bond pairs and no lone pairs. ...
