Question

Name the types of hydrides

Answer 1

Three basic types of hydrides—saline (ionic), metallic, and covalent—may be distinguished on the basis of type of chemical bond involved. A fourth type of hydride, dimeric (polymeric) hydride, may also be identified on the basis of structure (see borane).

➡ Dihydrogen, under certain reaction condition combines with almost all elements ( except Noble gases) to form binary compounds, called hydrides.

➡ Hydrides are classified into 3 categories:

• Ionic or saline or salt like hydrides : eg. LiH, MgH2.

• Covalent or molecular hyderides : eg. H2O.

• Metallic or internstial hyderides: eg. TiH.
