Arrange the elements $N$,$P$,$O$,and $S$ in the order of:
$(i)$ Increasing first ionisation enthalpy.
$(ii)$ Increasing non-metallic character.
Give reasons for the arrangement assigned.

Consider the following:
$(I)$ The order of first ionisation enthalpy of the first three elements of the $3^{rd}$ period is $Mg > Al > Na$
$(II)$ The element with an electronegativity of $3.5$ is chlorine
$(III)$ The order of sizes of ions $Mg^{2+}, Na^{+}, F^{-}$ and $O^{2-}$ is $Mg^{2+} < Na^{+} < F^{-} < O^{2-}$
$(IV)$ The $IUPAC$ name of the element with atomic number $106$ is Bohrium.
The correct statements are

Match List-$I$ with List-$II$:
List-$I$ List-$II$
