Detailed explanation-1: -This means the bigger atoms will be more polarizable. So, the order from biggest-smallest molecules (strongest to weakest IMF) is iodine, bromine and finally chlorine.
Detailed explanation-2: -Chlorine is the strongest oxidizing agent, bromine is intermediate, and iodine is the weakest oxidizing agent.
Detailed explanation-3: -Since bromine has larger size than chlorine, it will have stronger intermolecular forces and so more heat energy is required to break the strong bonds.
Detailed explanation-4: -The weakest intermolecular force is the London dispersion forces. London dispersion force: London dispersion forces are temporary attractive forces that develop temporary dipole and hence they are also known as induced-dipole-induced-dipole.
