What are the yields of each product in this halogenation reaction? Thank you so much!! :)
The image illustrates the relative stability of chlorine (Cl) in different positions within a chemical structure, along with a reaction sequence. 

**Table: Relative Stability of Cl**

- The table presents the relative stability of chlorine in tertiary (3°), secondary (2°), and primary (1°) carbon positions.
  - 3°: Stability is rated at 5
  - 2°: Stability is rated at 4
  - 1°: Stability is rated at 1

**Chemical Reaction Diagram:**

- The first structure shows a cyclobutane ring with a single linear substituent.
- An arrow labeled "Cl₂" indicates the introduction of chlorine to the structure.
- Following the reaction, there are three possible products:
  - The first product shows chlorine attached to one carbon of the cyclobutane ring.
  - The second product displays chlorine on a different carbon within the cyclobutane structure.
  - The last product depicts chlorine attached to the end of the linear substituent.

This illustrates different chlorination outcomes based on the position of chlorine in the chemical structure, correlating to the stability rankings in the table.
