covalent hydride's are volatile not non-volatile
No this is an ionic hydride, with Na+ and H-

Ionic. But it does have covalent bonding characteristics aswell

Yes- although the name hydride is usually applied to ionic compuhds containing H- e.g. potassium hydride, KH.
covalent bond in NH3
There are four types of binary compounds of hydrogen, namely, 1. Ionic hydride 2. Covalent Hydride 3. Complex Hydride 4 Metallic Hydride
Carbon tetra hydride is another name of Methane CH4, it is a compound which exists in molecular form.
Yes, ammonia is NH3 and the H atoms are covalently bonded to the nitrogen atom
This is simply because they contain the H- anion and are like the the halides of metals which are generally ionic. For me a covalent hydride is just as true as an ionic one some folk get very hung up on names and categorising.
Yes. Hydrogen almost always forms covalent bonds. However, it is ionically bonded in a few compounds such as sodium hydride.
