Answer:
Explanation:
In this group, the hydrogen acts as the hydride ion (H−). They bond with more electropositive metal atoms. Ionic hydrides are usually binary compounds (i.e., only two elements in the compound) and are also insoluble in solutions. Now I hope you can form your own examples, but common examples are Sodium Hydride (NaH), Lithium hydride (LiH), Potassium hydride (KH) etc.

"Compounds of hydrogen with less electronegative elements are known as hydrides."
- When hydrogen reacts with any other element the product formed is known as a hydride. In the periodic table, hydride formation is not seen from VA group elements and this is known as the hydride gap.
- Hydrogen molecule generally reacts with different elements other than noble gases to form hydrides. But the properties may be different depending on the type of intermolecular force that exists between the elements, their molecular masses and various other factors.
- Ionic Hydrides are formed when hydrogen molecule reacts with highly electropositive s-block elements which are Alkali Metals and Alkaline Earth Metals. In the solid state, these ionic hydrides are crystalline, non-conducting and non-volatile. But in a liquid state, they produce electricity.
- Ionic hydrides on electrolysis release hydrogen gas at the anode. Saline or ionic hydrides do not dissolve in conventional solvents and they are mostly used as bases or reducing reagents in organic synthesis.
- Examples of Ionic Hydrides are Nah, KH etc. These hydrides contain hydrogen as the negatively charged hydrogen ion.
