I want to know the answer to the following question:
Who suggested that hydride anions existed?character does the H atom have in a hydride?
All the background I'm provided with is that "The existence of the hydride anion, suggested by Gilbert N. Lewis in 1916 for group I and II salt-like hydrides, was demonstrated by Moers in 1920 by the electrolysis of molten lithium hydride (LiH), producing a stoichiometry quantity of hydrogen at the anode.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
