These are formed by many d-block and/block elements. However, the metals of group 7, 8 and 9 do not form hydride. Unlike saline hydrides, they are almost always non- stoichiometric, being deficient in hydrogen. For example, LaH 2.87, YbH 2.55, TiH 1.5-1.8, ZrH 1.3-1.75. Dihydrogen forms molecular compounds with most of the jp-block elements.

Most familiar examples are CH4, NH3, H2O and HF.

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Sodium reacts with Dihydrogen to form sodium hydride which is a crystalline ionic solid.

2Na + H2 → 2Na + H-

It reacts with H2O to produce H2 gas

2NaH+2H2O → 2NaOH+2H2

Although Na+H- does not conduct electricity in the solid state, the electrolysis of its melt produces H2 at the anode and Na at the cathode.

                                      At cathode  At anode

Na + H- (l) → &nbs

This is a long answer type question as classified in NCERT Exemplar

It is lithium hydride (LiH) because it has significant covalent character due to the smallest alkali metal, LiH is very stable. It is almost nonreactive towards oxygen and chlorine. It reacts with Al2Cl2 to form lithium aluminium hydride.

8LiH+ Al2Cl6 → 2LiAlH4 → LiCl

Since, a colourless liquid 'A' contains only hydrogen and oxygen and decomposes slowly on exposure to light but is stabilised by addition of urea, therefore, liquid A may be hydrogen peroxide. A is H2O2

Structure of H2O2 is given below.
