Detailed Solution

Identify the incorrect order of first ionization energy is Be<B<C.

The sequence of Be, B, and C's ionization potentials is  Be<B<C  is false. Because the effective nuclear charge grows with time, causing an increase in the ionization potential from left to right.

 Be has a greater ionization potential than B. Be and B both have the electrical configurations 1s22s2and 1s22s22p1 respectively. P electron removal uses less energy than s electron removal.

Hence, the option C is correct
