Q15 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (29 Jan Shift 1) · Chemistry

Which of the given compounds can enhance the efficiency of hydrogen storage tank?

  • A
    Li/P4
  • B
    SiH4
  • Correct answer
    C
    NaNi5
  • D
    Di-isobutylaluminium hydride

Solution

Dihydrogen gas is converted into liquid state by cooling to 20K. This would require expensive insulated tanks. Tanks are metal alloy like NaNi5, Ti-TiH2, Mg-MgH2, etc. are in use for storage of dihydrogen.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
