Arrange the following:
`NaH, MgH_(2)` and `H_(2)O` in order of increasing reducing property.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange the compounds NaH, MgH₂, and H₂O in order of increasing reducing property, we will analyze the reducing properties of each compound based on their ability to lose hydride ions (H⁻). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Reducing Agents**: A reducing agent is a substance that donates electrons or hydride ions to another substance, thereby reducing it while being oxidized itself. The strength of a reducing agent depends on how easily it can lose its hydride ion. 2. **Analyzing NaH (Sodium Hydride)**: ...
