Answer 1

You have multiple errors in your program.

Errors:

ordered_name[a] = student_name;

You only have pointers in your array. And you only have one single array for the name. That means you just assign the address of the same array to each of your entries in ordered_name . Same for the other fields.

while(!feof(stdFptr)){

Just don't do this. See Why is “while (?feof (file) )” always wrong? why this is wrong.

temp_id[i] = ordered_id[i];

You use array temp_id to swap your array entries. First of all, that is very inefficient as you only need a single variable, not an array.
Second, this is wrong because you only have 20 elements in temp_id and ordered_id but 32 elements in the other ordered* arrays.
Also you do not care about the number of entries in your file and might overflow both arrays.

Bad practice:

    int student_id ,temp_id[20],ordered_id[20], a=0,i,j;
    char student_name[32], student_surname[32];
    char *ordered_name[32],*ordered_surname[32],*temp_string[32];

You are using corresponding arrays to store each field of your data sets. That is terrible to maintain. Use a struct instead:

#define NAME_LENGTH 32
#define MAX_NUMBER 50

struct student {
    int  id;
    char name[NAME_LENGTH];
    char surname[NAME_LENGTH];    
};

fscanf(stdFptr, "%d %s %s ",&student_id,student_name,student_surname);

You do not check the result of fscanf which you should always do. Even better, use fgets followed by sscanf to parse your content.

    stdFptr = fopen("students.dat","r");

You open the file again after you already read all the content. That's not needed.

Your sorting is also inefficient:

        for(i=0;i<a;i++){
            for(j=i+1;j<=a;j++){
                if(ordered_id[i]>ordered_id[j]){

This can be used to fully sort an unsorted array. You do this for each new line. Therefore you can rely on the array being sorted. You onle need to find the place where to put the new entry. For this, a single loop would be sufficient.

Or you can move that sorting after you have finished reading the file.

You exit your program in case of an error but you don't report an error to the calling environment

exit(0);

That is same as exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); . If terminate due to an error, you should also indicate that condition.

An improved version could look like this:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

#define NAME_LENGTH 32
#define MAX_NUMBER 50

struct student {
    int  id;
    char name[NAME_LENGTH];
    char surname[NAME_LENGTH];    
};

int main(void)
{
    struct student students[MAX_NUMBER];
    int count = 0;

    FILE *infile = fopen("students.dat","r");
    if (infile == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Input file cannot be openend.");
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }

// PART 1: Read the file content
    puts("Before ordering");

    char line[2*NAME_LENGTH + 20];
    while (fgets(line, sizeof (line), infile) != NULL
        && count < MAX_NUMBER)
    {
        int result = sscanf(line, "%d %31s %31s", &students[count].id, students[count].name, students[count].surname);
        if (result != 3)
        {
            fprintf(stderr, "Invalid line ignored: <%s>", line);
        }
        else
        {
            fprintf(stdout,"%d %s %s\n", students[count].id, students[count].name, students[count].surname);
            count++;
        }
    }
    fclose(infile);

// PART 2: Sort the array

    struct student temp;
    for (int i = 0; i < count-1; i++) {
        for (int j = i+1; j < count; j++) {
            if (students[i].id > students[j].id) {
                temp = students[i];
                students[i] = students[j];
                students[j] = temp;
            }
        }
    }

    // Note: You could also just use qsort() function from standard library.


// PART 3: Write to output file

    FILE *outfile = fopen("order.dat","w");
    if (outfile == NULL) {
        fprintf(stderr, "Output file cannot be openend.");
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }

    puts("After ordering");
    for (int i=0; i < count; i++) {
        fprintf(outfile,"%d\t%s\t\t\t%s\n", students[i].id, students[i].name, students[i].surname);
        fprintf(stdout,"%d %s %s\n", students[i].id, students[i].name, students[i].surname);
    }
    fclose(outfile);
}
