H- atoms are adsorbed by metalic hydrides . Due to this property of adsorption pf hydrogen on transition metal is widely used as its storage media. Some of metals such as pd , pt can accommodate a very large volume of hydrogen. This property has high potential for hydrogen storage and as a source of energy.
when the metal hydride is heated , it decomposes to form hydrogen and very finely divided metals.
The Hydrogen thus evolved can be used as a fuel.thus, transition metals or their alloy can be used to store and transport hydrogen to be used as fuel . This is called hydrogen economy.
