The hydride ion `H^(-)` is a stronger base than its hydroxide ion `OH^(-)`. Which of the following reactions will occurs if sodium hydride (NaH) is dissolved in water ?A. `H^(-)(aq)+H_(2)OtoH_(3)O^(-)(aq)`B. `H^(-)(aq)+H_(2)O(l)toOH^(-)(aq)+H_(2)(g)`C. `H^(-)(aq)+H_(2)OC(l)to` No reactionD. None of these.
