A major challenge in implementing the “hydrogen economy”is finding a safe, lightweight, and compact way of storinghydrogen for use as a fuel. The hydrides of light metalsare attractive for hydrogen storage because they can store ahigh weight percentage of hydrogen in a small volume. Forexample, NaAlH4 can release 5.6% of its mass as H2 upondecomposing to NaH1s2, Al1s2, and H21g2. NaAlH4 possessesboth covalent bonds, which hold polyatomic anionstogether, and ionic bonds. (a) Write a balanced equationfor the decomposition of NaAlH4. (b) Which element inNaAlH4 is the most electronegative? Which one is the leastelectronegative?
