Assertion `:-` Fire in reaction between saline hydride and water can not be extinguished by `CO_(2)`.
Reason `:-` `CO_(2)` gets reduced by metal hydride.

Saline hydrides react explosively with water, such fires can be extinguished by

Assertion :- Oxidation state of Hydrogen is +1 in H_(2)O while -1 in CaH_(2) . Reason :- CaH_(2) is a metal hydride and for metal hydrides, hydrogen is assigned the oxidation number of -1 .

Assertion :- Oxidation state of Hydrogen is +1 in H_(2)O while -1 in CaH_(2) . Reason :- CaH_(2) is a metal hydride and for metal hydrides, hydrogen is assigned the oxidation number of -1 .

A portable hydrogen generator utilizes the reaction between calcium hydride and water to produce hydrogen. What mass of hydrogen can be produced by 70 g cartridge of calcium hydride?

Why is CO_(2) used as fire extinguisher ?
