In which of the following options the order of arrangement does not agree with the variation of property indicated against it?

  1. A
    (increasing first ionization enthalpy)
  2. B
    (increasing electron gain enthalpy)
  3. C
    (increasing metallic radius)
  4. D
    (increasing ionic size)

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

- Option A is wrong: Nitrogen has a stable half-filled configuration (), so its first ionization enthalpy is higher than Oxygen (). Correct order: .Option B is also technically wrong: Fluorine has a lower electron gain enthalpy than Chlorine due to inter-electronic repulsions in its small size. Correct order: .(NEET Phase 1 source marks both as discrepancies, but A is the more standard 'incorrect' trend usually tested).
