Select the response which presents the three elements below in order of increasing first ionisation potential (IE1).

To determine the correct order, we need the first ionization energies (IE1) of Te, I, and Br. 
Option a: Br, I, Te — this sequence implies IE1(Br) < IE1(I) < IE1(Te). In reality, Br has a higher IE1 than I, and I is higher than Te, so this order is incorrect. 
Option b: Br, Te, I — this suggests IE1(Br) < IE1(Te) < IE1(I). Since Br’s IE1 is the largest among the three, this cannot be right. 
Option c: I, Br, Te — this presents IE1(I) < IE1(Br) < IE1(Te). But Br’s IE1 is greater than I’s, and Te’s IE1 is the smallest, so this is not accurate. 
Option d: I, Te, Br — this implies IE1(I) < IE1(Te) < IE1(Br). However Te’s IE1 is smaller than I’s, not larger, so this ordering is incorrect. 
Option e: Te, Br, I — this sequence indicates IE1(Te) < IE1(Br) < IE1(I). While Te is the smallest, Br is not the middle here, since I’s IE1 is still greater than Br’s, so this arrangement is false. 
Option f: Te, I, Br — this order means IE1(Te) < IE1(I) < IE1(Br). This matches the known values: Te has the smallest IE1, I is intermediate, and Br has the largest. 
Given the actual IE1 values, the increasing order is Te < I < Br, which corresponds to option f. 
In summary, the correct progression follows the trend across the periodic table where ionization energy generally increases across a period and down a group affects the exact values, but for these three elements Te (a metalloid in period 5), I (halogen in period 5), and Br (halogen in period 4) the smallest to largest IE1 is Te, then I, then Br.}
