NaBH_(4) is ionic compound contain BH_(4)^(-) tetrahydridoborate ion and in solid state NaBH_(4) has sodium chloride structure. Not all tetrahydridoborates are ionic. The beryllium, aluminium and transition metal borohydrides become increasingly covalent and volatile. In these type of tetrabydrido borate the BH_(4)^(-) form covalent bond with metal ion. One or more H atoms in a BH_(4)^(-) act as a bridged bond to metal, forming a three centre bond with two electrons shared by three atoms. The BH_(4)^(-) is usually in that it may fonn one two or three such three centre bonds to the metal ion when fonns covalent bond. Be(BH_(4))_(2) and AI(BH_(4))_(3) are covalent and structures are given below: Select incorrect statement about ' Li [AIH_(4)]
