As we have learnt,

Interhalogen compounds have higher boiling point than Halogen.

Boiling Points depends on bond polarity and molecular mass both. Among the given compounds, ICl has the greatest molecular mass along with the greatest bond polarity.

The correct order of boiling point is given as

\mathrm{ICl> BrCl> Br_{2}>Cl_2}

Hence, the correct answer is Option (1)
