The main aim of this work is to investigate the effect of charge transfer reaction upon gaseous nebula structure, temperature and recombination coefficients of nitrogen and oxygen. We have been used CLOUDY 90 to determine the ionization structure of nitrogen and oxygen. We have used the abundance of heavy elements relative to hydrogen He = -1.07, C = -3.44, N = -4.07, O = -3.31 and Ne = -3.91. Ionization structure of hydrogen, helium, oxygen and nitrogen, electron temperature and the recombination coefficient are compared with the effective temperatures of 75000 K and 100000 K with the luminosity intensity of 1038 erg s-1. The result revealed that the ionization structures of elements are highly dependent on the transfer of charge and effective temperatures. In addition, we also tabulate the recombination coefficient of nitrogen and oxygen at different states with temperature of 5000 K, 10000 K, 15000 K and 20000 K. This calculation confirms with the results of previous calculation done by different scholars.
