    In which of the following arrangements, the order is not according to the property indicated after it in bracket?

    A)  \[A{{l}^{3+}}<M{{g}^{2+}}<N{{a}^{+}}<{{F}^{-}}\] (Increasing ionic size)

    B)  \[B<C<N<O\] (Increasing first ionisation energy)

    C)  \[I<Br<F<Cl\] (Increasing electron gain enthalpy)

    D)  \[Li<Na<K<Rb\] (Increasing metallic radius)

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     The order of\[I{{E}_{1}}\]of\[B,C,O\]and N is as \[B<C<P<N\] \[I{{E}_{1}}\]of\[N(1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}},2{{p}^{3}})\]is more than that of\[O\] \[(1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}},2{{p}^{4}})\]due to presence of extra stable half filled 2p-subshell in (he valence shell.
