Best Answer

When a base reacts with a metal, then a metal salt and hydrogen gas are formed.

Base + Metal ----> Salt + Hydrogen.

For example :-

2NaOH (aq) + Zn (s) ------> Na2ZnO2 (ag) + H2 (g)

Do Acids react with nonmetals?

Non metals do not react with acids usually a metal reacts with acid to produce hydrogen gas while this is not observed with non metals, this is because metals are electro-positive . therefore metals can give electrons to hydrogen which is liberated as hydrogen gas while is not observed with non metals. Fe + H2+SO42- ----------> FeSO4 + H2 2H+ + 2e- ---------> H2
