| Sep 20, 2022 at 9:33 | comment | added | Maurice | Hydrides like $\ce{NaH, CaH2}$ are ionic. Compounds or ions made by hydrogen and non-metals are covalent : $\ce{B2H6, BH4^-, CH4, SiH4, NH3, PH3, AsH3, H2O, OH-, H2S, H2Te, HF, HF2^-, HCl, HBr, HI}$. Even coordinate bonds in $\ce{AlH4^- }$ are covalent. Interstitial hydrides are relatively rare, like $\ce{H2}$ dissolved into palladium. | |
