Iodide> Bromide > chloride > flouride

Explanation:

During a nucleophilic substitution reaction, a nucleophilie replaces another in a molecule.

This process may occur via an ionic mechanism (SN1) or via a concerted mechanism (SN2).

In either case, the ease of departure of the leaving group is determined by the nature of the C-X bond. The stronger the C-X bond, the worse the leaving group will be in nucleophilic substitution. The order of strength of C-X bond is F>Cl>Br>I.

Hence, iodine displays the weakest C-X bond strength and it is thus, a very good leaving group in nucleophillic substitution while fluorine displays a very high C-X bond strength hence it is a bad leaving group in nucleophilic substitution.

Therefore, the ease of the use of halide ions as leaving groups follows the trend; Iodide> Bromide > chloride > flouride
