Consider the following ionisation reactions :

I.E. (kJ mol-1)

AgAg++e- ,       A1
B(g)+B(g)2++e-,       B2
C(g)+C(g)2++e-,      C2

If monovalent positive ion of A, divalent positive ion of B and trivalent positive ion of C have zero electron. Then incorrect order of corresponding I.E. is :

(1) C3>C2>B2                       

(2) B1>A1>C1

(3) C3>C2>B2
