MCQ
Ionic hydrides are usually:
  • A
    good electrical conductors when solid
  • B
    easily reduced
  • good reducing agents
  • D
    liquid at room temperature

Answer

Correct option: C.
good reducing agents
Ionic hydrides are usually good reducing agents.
$ 2 \mathrm{CO}+\mathrm{NaH} \rightarrow \mathrm{HCOONa}+\mathrm{C} $
$ \mathrm{PbSO}_4+2 \mathrm{CaH}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{PbS}+2 \mathrm{Ca}(\mathrm{OH})_2 $
$ \mathrm{Fe}_3 \mathrm{O}_4+\mathrm{NaH} \rightarrow 3 \mathrm{Fe}+4 \mathrm{NaOH} $
