Solution

The correct option is A ${S e B r}_{4} < {T e B r}_{4} < {P o B r}_{4}$
Stability of higher oxidation state increase as we go down the group - Tetrabromides of sulphur and selenium. i.e, $S B r_{4}, S e B r_{4}$ are unstable where as $T e B r_{4}, P o B r_{4}$ are quite stable.

Stability : $S e B r_{4} < T e B r_{4} < P o B r_{4}$
