stability
which is more stable H+ or H-
H- has noble gas config whereas H+ has no electrons at all , so which should be more stable?

Interesting question let me posted if you get the answer
(Both do not exist because they both are unstable but still no idea which is more stable)

Note for OP
+solved @user1 @user2... to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.they dont really exist but still play a major role in chem so ig its good to know bout them
what do you mean by do not exist?
did not follow
and what do you mean by which is more stable? :D
it is hard to compare a cation with an anion
they exist in tandem with something else
for instance, as a hydride, H- is present and H+ is there everywhere as an acid
if we want to get pedantic then yes, H+ is too small so it doesnt really exist and what you have are species like H3O+, H5O2+ and so on.
like individually exist karna for a significant time is hard
no specific idea, but which is more reactive, but again as u say its hard to compare cation and anion
H2 plus is more stable than h2- no idea if that helps tho
H2+ ?
Like the molecule h2 with net charge +1
that is from mot na
Yup
could one argue H- is quite large so charge density is very less thus less reactive than H+ and hence more stable
Yah I was thinking along the lines of H- already having an e-, yes it will want He config but H+ has no e- to begin with and a high positive charge [relatively] so it will reactmore readily than H-
And abt the size H+ is literally a nucleus so I feel it is very unstable when u compare it with a nucleus and an electron
Not sure tho
yeah same pov here
