Find the number of specie which have maximum four atoms lying in the same plane.

Answer:
4
Solution:

AlBr₃ → trigonal planar → 4 atoms (central + 3 Br)

ICl₄⁻ → square planar → 5 atoms, but max 4 in plane = 4

BrF₃ → T-shaped → max 3 atoms in plane

H₃O⁺ → trigonal planar → max 4 atoms

NO₃⁻ → trigonal planar → 4 atoms

Answer: 4 → AlBr₃, ICl₄⁻, H₃O⁺, NO₃⁻
