Amongest

$NO_{3}^{-},AsO_{3}^{3-},CO_{3}^{2-},ClO_{3}^{-},SO_{3}^{2-}$ and $BO_{3}^{3-}$

the non-plannar species are

$CO_{3}^{2-},SO_{3}^{2-}$ and

$BO_{3}^{2-}$

$AsO_{3}^{3-} ,ClO_{3}^{-}$ and

$SO_{3}^{2-}$

$NO_{3}^{-} , CO_{3}^{2-}$ and

$BO_{3}^{3-}$

$SO_{3}^{2-}, NO_{3}^{-}$ and

$BO_{3}^{3-}$

Option B

$AsO_{3}^{3-} ,ClO_{3}^{-}$ and $SO_{3}^{2-}$ have sp² hybridisation and hence are non- planar species, while

$NO_{3}^{-} , CO_{3}^{2-}$ and $BO_{3}^{3-}$ have sp² hybridisation and hence are planar species
