The formation of the oxide ion, O2−(g), from oxygen atom requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown in below: O(g)+e−⟶O−(g) ; ΔfH⊖=−141 kJ mol−1 O−(g)+e−⟶O2 − (g) ; ΔfH⊖=+780 kJ mol−1 Thus process of formation of O2− in gas phase is unfavourable though O2− is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that,
Oxygen is more electronegative.
Addition of electron in oxygen results in larger size of the ion.
Electron repulsion outweighs the stability gained by achieving noble gas configuration.
