Question

List some properties of hydrides ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The three major groups are covalent, ionic, and metallic hydrides. Formally, hydride is known as the negative ion of a hydrogen, H-, also called a hydride ion. Because of this negative charge, hydrides have reducing, or basic properties.

Answer 2

Some properties of hydrides are as follows :

Hydrides are colourless crystalline,strichometric compounds having lattices.

Hydrides have high melting point and boiling point as they form strong polar bonds.

Hydrides are soluble in molten alkali metal halides.

LiH is the only stable hydride which melts at 675 C without decomposition.
