Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

On moving let to right , ionization enthalpy increases, `:.` Expected order `: Clt Nlt Olt F`.
However, nitrogen has exceptionally high ionization enthalpy due to stable half filled electronic configuration. Therfore actual order of ionisation enthalpy is `CltOltNltF`.
