Ionic hydrides are formed by the reaction of a metal with hydrogen gas. The metal donates its electrons to hydrogen atoms, forming hydride ions (H-). These hydride ions then combine with metal cations to form the ionic hydride compound. This process is typically conducted under high temperature and pressure conditions.
Aluminum and lithium are both metals and will not form any ionic compounds together.
Boron hydride, also known as diborane, is a molecular compound. It consists of covalent bonds formed between boron and hydrogen atoms.
The formula for the hydride formed with antimony is SbH3, which is known as antimony hydride or stibine.
The formula of the hydride formed by tin is SnH4.
Nitride hydride is typically covalent. In this compound, nitrogen and hydrogen share electrons to form a covalent bond.
Calcium hydride is an ionic compound. It consists of calcium (Ca) cations and hydride (H-) anions, which are held together by ionic bonds.
