Question

What is more stable o2or N2+ explain based on molecular orbit theory

Answer 1

N2+ is more stable since N has to lose 5 electrons so as to be stable and oxygen has to lose 6 so as to gain stability. Thus oxygen remains with 4 if it loses 2 and nitrogen remains with 3 on losing 2. Thus N2+ is more stable since it is closer to stability than O2+. It is N2+.
