What is the action of alkali metals with hydrogen? |
|
Answer» Solution :ALKALI metals react with hydrogen to form ionic hydries. `2M + H_(2) overset(Delta)(to) 2M^(+) H^(-)` (Metal hydride) Ex: `2Li + H_(2) overset(1.073 K)(to) 2Li^(+) H^(-)` (Lithium hydride) `2Na + H_(2) overset(673K)(to) 2Na^(+) H^(-)` (sodium hydride). |
