Given information
The elements are given for increasing order of ionization energy.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
The ionization energy is the energy required to remove the electron from the isolated gaseous atom. This depends upon the electronic configuration of the elements. The elements having fully filled electronic configuration has higher ionization energy as compared to the elements which have incompletely filled orbitals. The ionization energy decreases as the size of the element increases.
