AI Generated Solution

To classify the given hydrides as covalent, ionic, or polymeric/interstitial, we will analyze each compound based on their bonding characteristics. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Beryllium Hydride (BeH₂)**: - Beryllium (Be) is a metal that forms bonds by sharing electrons with hydrogen atoms. In BeH₂, the structure is polymeric due to the bridging of hydrogen atoms between beryllium atoms. - **Classification**: **Polymeric Hydride** ...
