how do metals react with oxygen
Acids can react with metals to produce hydrogen gas, not oxygen. When acids react with metals, they displace hydrogen gas from the acid.
Au and Pt are some metals which do not react with O.
Alkali earth metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
Au or Pt are highly stable and they are noble metals as they do not react with oxygen readily
Non-metals typically form oxides when they react with oxygen. The resulting compounds are often acidic in nature.
A metal that does not react to acid, oxygen or water does not exist.
The pattern of reactions of metals with oxygen is based on their position in the reactivity series. Highly reactive metals like potassium, sodium, and calcium react vigorously with oxygen to form metal oxides. Less reactive metals like iron and copper react slowly with oxygen, forming metal oxides or hydroxides. Noble metals like gold and platinum do not react with oxygen at all under normal conditions.

metal oxide
Beryllium is the only alkaline metal that reacts to oxygen but not to water. The hydrogen in water stabilizes the reaction.
group one and two metals react with oxygen in the air as well as moisture to from metal oxides
