(D) To determine if a species is planar,we look at its molecular geometry based on the $VSEPR$ theory:$1$. $I_3^{-}$: $sp^3d$ hybridization,linear geometry (planar).$2$. $XeF_2$: $sp^3d$ hybridization,linear geometry (planar).$3$. $ClF_3$: $sp^3d$ hybridization,$T$-shaped geometry (planar).$4$. $H_2O$: $sp^3$ hybridization,bent geometry (planar).$5$. $OCl^{-}$: $sp^3$ hybridization,bent geometry (planar).$6$. $ICl_2^{+}$: $sp^3$ hybridization,bent geometry (planar).$7$. $XeF_3^{+}$: $sp^3d^2$ hybridization,$T$-shaped geometry (planar).$8$. $XeF_4$: $sp^3d^2$ hybridization,square planar geometry (planar).$9$. $BF_3$: $sp^2$ hybridization,trigonal planar geometry (planar).Since all the listed species have planar geometries,the correct option is $D$.
