Solution
The correct option is DI>Cl>Br iodine oxygen bond is stable due to the greater polarity of bond and stability of chlorine oxygen bond is due to multiple bond formation with Orbital of chlorine atom now, be lier in better I and Cl, so it lacks both characteristics so, the stability order of oxide is given as
