For the second period elements the correct increasing order of first ionization enthalpy is :
- ALi < B < Be < C < N < O < F < Ne
- BLi < Be < B < C < O < N < F < Ne
- CLi < B < Be < C < O < N < F < Ne
- DLi < Be < B < C < N < O < F < Ne

Correct answer: C
Ionisation enthalpy increases in a period from left to right, because of increased nuclear charge and decrease in atomic radii. But because of half filled orbitals of Be, N and fully filled orbitals of Ne, stability of those atoms inceases.
So, the correct increasing order of first
ionisation enthalpy will be :
Li < B < Be < C < O < N < F < Ne
