Solution

The correct option is B Be<C<B<N<F<O<Ne<He<Li
He+1s1
Li+[He]
Be+[He]2s1
B+[He]2s2
C+[He]2s22p1
N+[He]2s22p2
O+[He]2s22p3
F+[He]2s22p4
Ne+[He]2s22p5
Li+ is most stable and then comes He+. Half filled orbitals are more stable than partially filled.
Hence the correct order will be Be<C<B<N<F<O<Ne<He<Li
