Detailed Solution

Bond length is inversely proportional to the bond order. This depicts that if bond order is high, then bond length will be shorter.

Bond order can be calculated using the following expression:

Bond order=Valency of peripheral atoms+charge on the acid radicalNumber of peripheral atoms

Peripheral atom is the oxygen atom. 

Bond order of ClO2- is:

Bond order=2-12 =1.5

Bond order of ClO- is:

Bond order=2-11 =1

Bond order of ClO3- is:

Bond order=2-13 =1.66

Bond order of ClO4- is:

Bond order=2-14 =1.75

Therefore, the correct bond length order is:

ClO4-<ClO3-<ClO2-<ClO-
