The correct order of size of the given species is: 

1.	I > I– > I+	2.	I+ > I– > I
3.	I > I+ > I–	4.	I– > I > I+

The formation of oxide ion O^2-(g), from oxygen atom, requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below

$\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+{\mathrm{e}}^{-}\to {\mathrm{O}}^{-}\left(\mathrm{g}\right);<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>∆{\mathrm{H}}^{⊝}=-141<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>\mathrm{kJ}<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>{\mathrm{mol}}^{-1}$
${\mathrm{O}}^{-}\left(\mathrm{g}\right)+{\mathrm{e}}^{-}\to {\mathrm{O}}^2\left(\mathrm{g}\right);<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>∆{\mathrm{H}}^{⊝}=+780<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>\mathrm{kJ}<mspace\; width="1em"></mspace>{\mathrm{mol}}^{-1}$

Thus, the process of formation of O^2- in the gas phase is unfavourable even though O^2- is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that:

The outermost electronic configuration of the last element of the p-block in the 6th period is represented by:

1. $7{\mathrm{s}}^{2}7{\mathrm{p}}^6$

2. $5{\mathrm{f}}^{14}6{\mathrm{d}}^{10}7{\mathrm{s}}^{2}7{\mathrm{p}}^0$

3. $4{\mathrm{f}}^{14}5{\mathrm{d}}^{10}6{\mathrm{s}}^{2}6{\mathrm{p}}^6$

4. $4{\mathrm{f}}^{14}5{\mathrm{d}}^{10}6{\mathrm{s}}^{2}6{\mathrm{p}}^4$

The elements with atomic numbers 35, 53, and 85 are:

Electronic configuration of four elements A, B, C and D are given below : 

A. $1{\mathrm{s}}^{2}2{\mathrm{s}}^{2}2{\mathrm{p}}^6$
