Detailed Solution

Due to greater stability of the half filled electronic configuration of nitrogen, its ionisation enthalpy is higher than that of oxygen. Thus (II) is incorrect.Due to stronger electron-electron repulsions and small size of fluorine the negative electron gain enthalpy of fluorine is lesser than that of chlorine. Thus (III) is incorrect.
