the greater the number of O atoms(ie the higher the oxidation state of halogen) in a series of oxoacids of a halogen the greater is the thermal stability.the activity of oxoacids as oxidising agent is inversly related to the number of O atoms or the oxidation state of halogen atom in the molecule. thus HCLO is the strongest oxidising agent and HClO4 is the weakest oxidising agent. in other words, oxidising  power is the greatest for acids of lower thermal stability.
