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
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?
hydrogen
What is hydrogen in pd metal?
What is hydrogen in pd metal?
Is hydrogen metal metalloid or non metal metalloids?
hydrogen is a non-metal
What does an acid and a metal make?
When an acid reacts with a metal, it typically forms a salt and hydrogen gas is released. The metal displaces the hydrogen from the acid, leading to the formation of the salt. This is a common type of single displacement reaction.
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
Is hydrogen a non metal?
yes hydrogen is a non metal
What reacts with a metal to form hydrogen gas and a metal?
An acid will react with a metal to form hydrogen gas and a salt of the metal. The metal replaces the hydrogen in the acid, leading to the formation of hydrogen gas which is released as a product of the reaction.
What is displaced from hydrogen when you add a reactive metal?
When you add a reactive metal, such as sodium or potassium, to hydrogen, the metal displaces the hydrogen gas and forms a metal hydride. This reaction is a displacement reaction where the metal takes the place of hydrogen in the chemical compound.
Is hydrogen metals and nonmetals?
Hydrogen, symbol H, atomic number 1, is a non metal.
Is hydrogen metal?
Hydrogen is not considered a metal. It is a non-metal and is the first element on the periodic table. In its pure form, hydrogen exists as a diatomic gas and is the most abundant element in the universe.
