Answer #1

Ionization energy is the energy required to put out an electron from the atom.More electronegative  atom tends to bind its valance electron more tightly.Therefore more energy is needed to put out that valance electron from that atom.Among I,O,F F is most electronegative therefore is will have highest ionization energy and I has least electronegative, so least ionization energy. SO THE TREND OF IONIZATION ENERGY F>O>I.
