Ytterbium is typically in a plus three oxidation state making it a d-zero electron configuration. Using MO theory it's chloride should follow VESPER rules to have trigonal planner coordination. The molecular orbital diagram for this element may differ from VESPER rules however and should be referred to in and inorganic scientific publication of some type. The best answer is always to say "do the research".
