Are these options correct for "give up"?
I gave up smoking.
I gave smoking up.
I gave it up.
and basically, the object cannot come after the particle. (eg. I gave up it.)
Thank you in advance.

Hi Hamid,
they are all correct!
Smoking is the object and IT is the object pronoun. When you use the object pronoun you can't use it after the particle!
