F is the most electronegative element and electronegativity decreases to the left of F, going across the periodic table, and down a group (below F).

Iodine = 2.5. One would expect this, because I is farthest right in the periodic table. Sb and In are farther left, and Sr abnd Y are very metallic in character.

without looking at a PT, Iodine is closest to fluorine, so I'd go with it.
