Oxygen is more electronegative than chloride. In the series of oxyacids HOCI, `HCIO_(2)`, `HCIO_(3)` and `HCIO_(4)`, an increasing number of oxygen atom is bonded to the chlorine atom. Chlorine forms a number of oxyacids which differ in their stability order.
The order if acid strength og HOCI, `HCIO_(2)`, `HCIO_(3)` and `HCIO_(4)` are

A

`HCIO_(4)gtHCIO_(3)gtHCIO_(2)gtHOCI`

B

`HOCIgtHCIO_(2)gtHCIO_(3)gtHCIO_(4)`

C

`HCIO_(3)gtHCIO_(4)gtHCIO_(2)gtHOCI`

D

`HCIO_(3)gtHCIO_(2)gtHOCIgtHCIO_(4)`
