Title: Can molecular hydrogen have only one electron?
Post by: misiekuba on July 10, 2021, 11:08:14 AM

Can molecular hydrogen have only one electron? So is it possible to obtain a stable H₂⁺ molecule?

Did you see H₂ molecular orbitals diagram? H₂⁺ is a stable molecule (will not dissociate), reactivity is the other thing.
