1. (c) The correct option is (c). In H
2
O, hydrogen has + 1 oxidation no.
In CaH
2
, hydrogen has – 1 oxidation no.
2. (c) Occlusion is the phenomenon of adsorption of hydrogen by metal.
3. (d) Heavy water is stable.
4. (a) A fusion reaction is difficult to occur because positively charged
nuclei repel each other. At very high temperature of the order of
10
6
 to 10
7
 K, the nuclei may have sufficient energy to overcome
the repulsive forces and fuse. It is for this reason, fusion reactions
are also called thermonuclear reactions. Hence, hydrogen can be
fused to form helium at high temperature and high pressure.
5. (b)
In this reaction H
–
 acts as bronsted base as it accepts one proton (H
+
)
from H

O and form H

.
6. (d) The water gas is a combination of carbon and hydrogen. It is used
in manufacturing of methanol.
7. (a) Elements of group 7, 8 and 9 of d-block do not form hydrides at
all. The inability of metals of group 7, 8 and 9 of periodic table to
form hydrides is referred to as hydrides gap of d-block. In these
compounds H atoms are supposed to occupy interstitial position in
the metal lattices. They are also called non-stoichiometric
hydrides.

9. (c) Hydrogen is not used in the synthesis of hydroquinone and tartaric
acid.
10. (b) In the structure of ice each molecule of H
2
O is surrounded by three
H
2
O molecules in hexagonal honey comb manner which results an
open cage like structure. As a result there are a number of 'hole' or
open spaces. In such a structure lesser number of molecules are
packed per ml. When ice melts a large no. of hydrogen bonds are
broken. The molecules therefore move into the holes or open
spaces and come closer to each other than they were in solid state.
This result sharp increase in the density. Therefore ice has lower
density than water.

13. (d) Chlorine has lone pair which it can donate to form coordinate bond
while hydrogen cannot.

sodium hydride.
