Halogens is defined as the group of 7 periodic table. As, every periodic table contains 7 valence electrons and they only need 1 more to complete an outer shell, that is why they are extremely reactive. And according to the law that recurring patterns of the properties of elements arise when they are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. As the halogen all act very similarly with each other in chemical reaction, it is true.

This question is incomplete. Luckily, I found the same problem which is shown in the attached picture. To answer the question, we must know how the size and charge affect the lattice energy. The answer is: lattice energy increases with the increasing charge of the ions, and decreasing radius of the atoms.
<em>Therefore, the ranking would be: A < B < C</em>.
