1.	How do you expect the metallic hydrides to be useful for hydrogen storage ? Explain
Answer» tion:In METALLIC hydrides, HYDROGEN is absorbed as H-atoms.Inclusion of H-atom RESULTS in the expansion of metal lattice and therefore, it becomes LESS stable.On heating, the less stable metal lattice decomposes to form hydrogen and very finely divided metal.The hydrogen thus produced can be used as fuel.Thus, metallic hydrides are useful for hydrogen storage.
