Question
$C−X$ bond is strongest in$:$

Answer

The carbon$-$halogen bonds $($apart from the carbon$-$iodine bond$)$ are polar, because the electron pair is pulled closer to the halogen atom than the carbon.
This is because $($apart from iodine$)$ the halogens are more electronegative than carbon. The Carbon$-$Fluorine bond is strongest.
