It forms a metal oxide. Metal oxides include "ceramics", rock, gemstones, even "superconductors" in some special cases.

What happens when transition metals react with the air?
Metals react with air in a form called oxidizing. This is caused because the oxygen molecules are reacting with the surface of the metal.
Do alkali metals react with oxygen?
Yes, extremely well, They are usually stored in a parafinic oil to prevent reaction with air
What metal is used in the reaction of metal and air?
Metals in the reactivity series from aluminium to copper react with oxygen in the air to form the metal oxide. Aluminium and Zinc reacts very quickly, Iron reacts slowly at room temperature. Tin, Lead and Copper reacts with Oxygen in air when heated. Silver, Gold and Platinum do not react with Oxygen in air
Why are alkali metals stored in oil and kerosene?
They are so reactive they even react with the moisture in the air. Storing under oil prevents this.
What happens when the alkali metals react with chlorine?
They metals are stored in oil to minimize the reactivity with air. When alkali metals react with air, they quickly tarnish after begin cut, they burn easily.
What gas present in the air can react with metals?
Oxygen
When metals react with the oxygen in air what it is called?
oxidation
What do metals react with that is found in the air?
group one and two metals react with oxygen in the air as well as moisture to from metal oxides
Why do metals go rusty?
They react (oxidise) with the oxygen in the air.
Why do metals lose their luster?
react with the air, generally oxygen

Why do metals often lose their luster?
react with the air, generally oxygen
Do alkaline metals react with oxygen?
Yes, both the alkali metals and the alkaline earth metals with react with oxygen. The alkali metals will do so rapidly even at room temperature, cesium and rubidium self-ignite on contact to air.
Why do metals react with only oxygen when burnt in the air?
Oxygen is the most reactive component of air. So for nearly all metals that burn in air only the oxide is formed. There is one exception magnesium burns in air to form the oxide and also traces of nitride.
