    Which of the following is an ionic hydride?

    A)  \[\text{NaH}\]                

    B)         \[\text{HCl}\]  

    C)         \[\text{N}{{\text{H}}_{3}}\]                      

    D)         \[\text{Si}{{\text{H}}_{\text{4}}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Sodium hydride \[(NaH)\] on ionization give \[\text{N}{{\text{a}}^{\text{+}}}\] and \[{{\text{H}}^{-}}.\] So it is an ionic hydride, while \[\text{HCl,N}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}\] and \[\text{Si}{{\text{H}}_{4}}\] are covalent hydride.
