MCQ
Which ionic hydride is stable upto its melting point?
  • A
    NaH
  • B
    $CaH_2$​
  • LiH
  • D
    $BaH_2$​

Answer

Correct option: C.
LiH
  1. LiH
Explanation:
All ionic hydrides of group I and group II decompose before their melting point except LiH.
LiH is stable upto its melting point.
The ionic character of the bonds in hydrides increases from LiH to CsH and their stability decreases in the same order.

Given below are two statements:

Statement-$I$: Since fluorine is more electronegative than nitrogen, the net dipole moment of $\mathrm{NF}_3$ is greater than $\mathrm{NH}_3$.

Statement-$II$: In $\mathrm{NH}_3$, the orbital dipole due to lone pair and the dipole moment of $\mathrm{NH}$ bonds are in opposite direction, but in $\mathrm{NF}_3$ the orbital dipole due to lone pair and dipole moments of $N-F$ bonds are in same direction.  In the light of the above statements.
