Outermost electronic configurations of four elements $A, B, C, D$ are given below:
$A: 3s^{2}$
$B: 3s^{2} 3p^{1}$
$C: 3s^{2} 3p^{3}$
$D: 3s^{2} 3p^{4}$
The correct order of first ionization enthalpy for them is:

The electronic configuration of elements $A, B$ and $C$ are $[He] 2s^1, [Ne] 3s^1$ and $[Ar] 4s^1$ respectively. Which one of the following orders is correct for the first ionization potentials (in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$) of $A, B$ and $C$?
