  • The formation of the oxide ion O _((g)) ^(2-) from oxygen atom requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below : O _((g)) + e ^(-) to O _((g )) ^(-) ,Delta _(f) H^(0) =-141 kJ mol ^(-1) O _((g)) ^(-) +e ^(-) to O _((g)) ^(-2) ,Delta _(f) H^(0) =+ 780 kJ mol ^(-1) Thus, process of formation of O^(2-) in gas phase is unfavourable even thrugh O ^(2-) is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that (2015)

    A
    `O^(-)` ion has comparatively smaller size than oxygen atom
    B
    Oxygen is more electronegative
    C
    Addition of electron in oxygen result in larger size of the ion
    D
    Electron repulsion outweights the stability gained by achieving noble gas configuration.
