Why Hydroxide ion is less strong base than hydride ion​

The hydride ion,H−is a stronger base, so it will abstract a proton from the water. As the water will give protons, so water will work as an acid and an acid-base reaction will take place. Hydride ions get protons from water and form hydrogen gas and hydroxide ions.

Sodium hydride is the chemical compound with the empirical formula NaH. This alkali metal hydride is primarily used as a strong yet combustible base in organic synthesis. NaH is a saline (salt-like) hydride, composed of Na+ and H− ions, in contrast to molecular hydrides such as borane, methane, ammonia, and water.

"record the time to complete a chemical reaction" would most likely be part of a lab procedure.
