Yes. Although hydrogen is a non-metal, there is metallic hydrogen. It is formed when hydrogen is sufficiently compressed and undergoes a phase change; it is an example of degenerate matter. Solid metallic hydrogen consists of a crystal lattice of protons with a spacing which is significantly smaller than a Bohr radius. Indeed, the spacing is more comparable with an electron wavelength. The electrons are unbound and behave like the conduction electrons in a metal. As is the dihydrogen molecule H2, metallic hydrogen is an allotrope. In liquid metallic hydrogen, protons do not have lattice ordering.

What do acids do to metal?
Acid will make a salt of that metal and free hydrogen, from the acid, if that metal is lower then hydrogen in the electro- motive series
Does acid react with metal to make hydrogen gas?
Yes
Is hydrogen metal?
hydrogen is a non metal
How can we make hydrogen using a metal?
You can throw a piece of metal into the acid (magnesium will have good effect), as it is dissolving, hydrogen gas would be given off...

What element is a metal used to make silverware jewelry and coins?

Is hydrogen metal metalloid or non metal metalloids?
hydrogen is a non-metal
Is hydrogen metals and nonmetals?
Hydrogen, symbol H, atomic number 1, is a non metal.
Is hydrogen a non metal?
yes hydrogen is a non metal
Word equations for metal reactions?
metal + acid -> salt + water metal + oxygen -> metal oxide metal oxide + acid -> salt + water metal + water -> metal hydroxide + hydrogen Metal + Steam -> Metal Oxide + Hydrogen Metal + Acid -> Metal salt + Hydrogen
Can aluminum and hydrogen chloride make hydrogen?
Yes, aluminum is a reactive metal than hydrogen. So it undergoes a displacement reaction and emits hydrogen along with aluminum chloride as the other product.
