Solution

The correct option is B RI>RBr>RCl>RF
F, Cl, Br, I belong to the same group orderly. Atomic radii go on increasing as the nuclear charge increases in proceeding downwards in a group.
The decreasing order of bond length CI>CBr>CCl>CF

The order of bond dissociation energy RF>RCl>RBr>RI.

During dehydrohalogenation CI bond breaks more easily than CF bond.
So reactivity order of halides. RI>RBr>RCl>RF
