Hello there. Here's a problem that appeared on one of my tests.

What is the order of reactivity of halogens in electrophilic addition reaction via formation of cyclohalonium intermediate?

I tried to predict it using the mechanism, but couldn't reach a conclusion. Is this based on thermodynamic and kinetic data?

Here's the mechanism involving bromine, for reference:

Could someone please provide a detailed explanation for the above problem, with data if possible?

Thanks a lot.

(A) $\ce{F2}$> $\ce{Cl2}$> $\ce{Br2}$> $\ce{I2}$
(B) $\ce{I2}$> $\ce{Br2}$> $\ce{Cl2}$> $\ce{F2}$
(C) $\ce{I2}$> $\ce{Br2}$> $\ce{F2}$> $\ce{Cl2}$
(D) $\ce{Br2}$> $\ce{Cl2}$> $\ce{I2}$> $\ce{F2}$
