ionic hydrides are source of producind hydrogen and as reducing agents in metallurgical processes and as dehydrating agents for organic solvents.covalent hydrides forms colourless gases,volatile liquids or solids.

No this is an ionic hydride, with Na+ and H-
Ionic. But it does have covalent bonding characteristics aswell
i only got uses of ionic hydrides her it is: Ionic hydrides and their complexes are used as reducing agents. They evolve hydrogen when heated. Hence they are used as solid fuels as they ignite spontaneously. (source: WWW.tutorvista.com)
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.

Sodium hydride is an ionic compound.

Yes- although the name hydride is usually applied to ionic compuhds containing H- e.g. potassium hydride, KH.

There are four types of binary compounds of hydrogen, namely, 1. Ionic hydride 2. Covalent Hydride 3. Complex Hydride 4 Metallic Hydride
covalent hydride's are volatile not non-volatile
Yes. Hydrogen almost always forms covalent bonds. However, it is ionically bonded in a few compounds such as sodium hydride.
Ionic
Not hydride, but it is a mixture of covalent oxide and covalent silicate.Silt is made up of quartz (SiO2) and feldspar(KAlSi3O8 – NaAlSi3O8 – CaAl2Si2O8)
