Explain the difference between ionic and metallic hydrides |
|
Answer» ic hydrides form between the hydrogen under the active metal influence mostly with alkali and alkaline earth metals of GROUP one and two ELEMENTS. 2)=>In this group, the hydrogen acts as the hydride ion (H−H−). 3)=>They BOND with more electro(+ve) metal atoms. Ionic hydrides are usually binary compounds4)=> they are insoluble in solutions METALLIC HYDRIDES 1)=>Hydrogen bonds with transition metals2)=> they can be nonstoichiometric3)=>H atoms can and MAY fill in between the lattice while some might, and is not a definite ordered filling4)=>metallic hydrides consist of more basic stoichiometric compounds as well. |
