Hydrogen can form hydorgen ion or hydride ion by losing one electron or gain one electron respectively. Whether it gain or lose electron, it mainly depends on the electronegativity of the element reacting with hydrogen. If the element reacting with hydrogen has a high electronegativity than hydrogen, it will take away the electron from hydrogen and hydrogen ion is form. One of the typical example is reaction between chlorine and hydrogen. Hydrogen ion and chloride ion is formed as the following equation:
H2+ Cl2 ----> 2H+ + 2Cl-
If the hydrogenreact with the element which has lower eletronegativity than hydrogen, the hydrogen will gain the lectron from this element and hydride ion will be formed. One of the typical example is the formation of sodium hydride.
H2 + 2Na -----> 2NaH ----> Na + + H-
However, this hydride ion is not very stable it will easily react with any proton source to form H2 and decompose. Say, once it contacts with water it will be hydrolyzed and form hydrogen. H- + H2O -----> H2 + OH-
