How do you expect the metallic hydrides to be useful for hydrogen storage? Explain.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In metallic hydrides, hydrogen occupies interstices in the metal lattice, particularly in case of Ni, Pd, Ce and Ac. The metals like Pd, Pt, etc., can accommodate a very large volume of hydrogen. Therefore, they can be used for the storage of hydrogen.
