What will lie flat on a plane Methane ethane ethene ethyne chloromethane?
Out of the given molecules, methane (CH4) and ethane (C2H6) will lie flat on a plane. Methane has a tetrahedral shape with carbon at the center and four hydrogen atoms attached to it, while ethane has a linear shape with two carbon atoms bonded together and six hydrogen atoms attached to the carbons. Ethene (C2H4), ethyne (C2H2), and chloromethane (CH3Cl) have bent or trigonal planar geometries, which means they won't lie flat on a plane.
