Question

Uses of ionic hydrides

Answer 1

Answer:

Ionic hydrides on electrolysis liberate hydrogen gas at the anode. Saline or ionic hydrides does not dissolve in conventional solvents and they are mostly used as bases or reducing reagents in organic synthesis. Example of Ionic Hydrides: Nah, KH, CaH2, etc. These contain hydrogen as the negatively charged (H–) ion.
