Best Answer

There are many different kinds of metal. There are highly reactive metals such as sodium, which if placed in water will react immediately, forming a sodium hydroxide solution and releasing hydrogen gas. There are moderately reactive metals such as iron, which if placed in water will slowly start to rust. And there are non-reactive (or inert) metals such as gold, which if placed in water don't do anything.

Metal + Water (H2O) produces → Metal Hydroxide (OH-) and Hydrogen gas (H2).

Can a metal plus water equal a metal oxide plus hydrogen?

You get the metal hydroxide instead of the metal oxide. This happens with extremely reactive metals such as sodium. 2Na + 2H2O --> 2NaOH +H2
