Q. The correct order of ionisation energy for comparing carbon, nitrogen and oxygen atoms is

Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties

Solution:

Nitrogen has more ionisation potential than carbon and oxygen because, if outermost orbit is half filled so it is more stable and order is $C<\,N<\,O$
