The formation of oxide ion O^(2-)(g) from oxygen atom requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below O(g)+e^(-) rarr O^(-)(g), DeltaH^(-) = - 141 kj mol^(-1) O^(-)(g) +e^(-) rarr O^(2-) (g), DeltaH^(-) =+ 780 kj mol^(-1) Thus, process of formation of O^(2-) in gas phase is unfavourable even through O^(2-) is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that
