      Lithium hydride can be used to prepare other useful hydrides. Beryllium hydride is one of them. Suggest a route for the preparation of beryllium hydride starting from lithium hydride. Write chemical equations involved in the process.

    Answer:

      \[LiH\]is first reacted with anhydrous aluminium chloride. The reaction is carried out in ether. \[8LiH+A{{l}_{2}}C{{l}_{6}}\xrightarrow{Ether}2LiAl{{H}_{4}}+6LiCl\] \[LiAl{{H}_{4}}\]is used for the preparation of beryllium hydride. Beryllium chloride is reacted with L\[LiAl{{H}_{4}}\] to form beryllium hydride. \[2BeC{{l}_{2}}+LiAl{{H}_{4}}\to 2Be{{H}_{2}}+LiCl+AlC{{l}_{3}}\]
