text: Protide, deuteride and tritide are used to describe ions or compounds that contain enriched hydrogen-1, deuterium or tritium, respectively.
  In the classic meaning, hydride refers to any compound hydrogen forms with other elements, ranging over groups 1–16 (the binary compounds of hydrogen). The following is a list of the nomenclature for the hydride derivatives of main group compounds according to this definition:
  *alkali and alkaline earth metals: metal hydride
  *boron: borane, BH
  *aluminium: alumane, AlH
  *gallium: gallane, GaH
  *indium: indigane, InH
  *thallium: thallane, TlH
  *carbon: alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and all hydrocarbons
  *silicon: silane
  *germanium: germane
  *tin: stannane
  *lead: plumbane
  *nitrogen: ammonia ("azane" when substituted), hydrazine
  *phosphorus: phosphine (note "phosphane" is the IUPAC recommended name)
  *arsenic: arsine (note "arsane" is the IUPAC recommended name)
  *antimony: stibine (note "stibane" is the IUPAC recommended name)
  *bismuth: bismuthine (note "bismuthane" is the IUPAC recommended name)
  *helium: helium hydride (only exists as an ion)
  According to the convention above, the following are "hydrogen compounds" and not "hydrides":
  *oxygen: water ("oxidane" when substituted; synonym: hydrogen oxide), hydrogen peroxide
  *sulfur: hydrogen sulfide ("sulfane" when substituted)
  *selenium: hydrogen selenide ("selane" when substituted)
  *tellurium: hydrogen telluride ("tellane" when substituted)
  *polonium: hydrogen polonide ("polane" when substituted)
  *halogens: hydrogen halides
  Examples:
  *nickel hydride: used in NiMH batteries
  *palladium hydride: electrodes in cold fusion experiments
  *lithium aluminium hydride: a powerful reducing agent used in organic chemistry
  *sodium borohydride: selective specialty reducing agent, hydrogen storage in fuel cells
  *sodium hydride: a powerful base used in organic chemistry
  *diborane: reducing agent, rocket fuel, semiconductor dopant, catalyst, used in organic synthesis; also borane, pentaborane and decaborane
  *arsine: used for doping semiconductors
  *stibine: used in semiconductor industry
  *phosphine: used for fumigation
  *silane: many industrial uses, e.g. manufacture of composite materials and water repellents
  *ammonia: coolant, fuel, fertilizer, many other industrial uses
  *hydrogen sulfide: component of natural gas, important source of sulfur
  *Chemically, even water and hydrocarbons could be considered hydrides.
  All metalloid hydrides are highly flammable. All solid non-metallic hydrides except ice are highly flammable. But when hydrogen combines with halogens it produces acids rather than hydrides, and they are not flammable.
