The first ionization energy of the oxygen molecule is the energy required for the following process: O2

Question:

The first ionization energy of the oxygen molecule is the energy required for the following process:
O2 (g) → O2+ (g) + e-
The energy needed for this process is 1175kJ/mol, very similar to the first ionization energy of Xe. Would you expect O2 to react with F2? If so, suggest a product or products of this reaction.
