Electron gain enthalpy is the tendency of an isolated atom in its gaseous state to accept an additional electron to form a negative ion. It is the property of isolated atoms. 

Electronegtivity is the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards it in a covalent bond. It is the property of atoms in molecules.

The trend in ionization energy may be predicted from the electronic configurations of elements. The removal of electron requires comparatively lesser energy if the species obtained after the removal of electron has fullyfilled orbital configuration. The removal of electron from the fully-filled orbital or half-filled orbitals of one type requires comparatively higher energy as these represent stable configurations. Based on these information, answer the following three questions. (i) The correct order of elements having first ionization energies of and , respectively, is (a) Be, B, He, Li (b) Bi, Li, He, B (c) B, Be, Li, He (d) (ii) The correct order of elements having second ionization energies of and , respectively, is (a) Be, Li, He, B (b) Be, Li, B, He (c) (d) B, He, Li, Be (iii) The correct order of elements having third ionization energies of and , respectively, are (a) (b) (c) (d) Li, Be, B, C
