This one works:

view-source:http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.0.3.min.js

This one does not:

view-source:http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js

The network status is "canceled". Response headers:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Without "view-source" I'm able to download the file and view the source but I want to know why this happens.

A strange thing in addition is, that it is not possible to open the web delevoper tools after opening this view-source url. If you do, the tools are completely blank: web developer tools missing

I'm taking a guess here: it has to do with the Content-Disposition setting in the Response Header.
