Detailed Solution

All of the following traits are present in BF4 ions.

(A) Tetrahedral hybridization, which is sp3 hybridization since it has four bond pairs of electrons but no lone pairs.

(b) The use of an empty orbital can be regarded evidence of hybridization. B has three valence electrons, while the hybridization involves four orbital. Thus, the hybridization involves one vacant orbital.

(c) All bond lengths are the same; for example, there are four identical BF single bonds, so all AB bond lengths are the same.

Hence, the correct option is D.
