Answer is second option K+-->K(+2). Because k+ has a noble configuration due to which removing an electron further requires a large amount of energy as compared to other reactions. Please do approve my anseer if correct

3rd option. Since successive ionisation energy always increases and ionisation energy of non metal is more than that of metal..Radha
