Since it has 1 valence electrons it is a metal and also non metal because it may loose 1 electron to stabilize or also gain 1 electron to stabilize. Metals loose electrons and non-metals gain electron and hydrogen have both metallic (to loose) and non-metallic (to gain) properties.

Is hf metal or non metal?
Hydrogen fluoride (HF) is a compound composed of hydrogen and fluorine atoms. Fluorine is a non-metal, while hydrogen is a non-metal as well. Therefore, HF is considered a covalent compound rather than a metal or non-metal.
Why can't there be an ionic bond between hydrogen and chlorine?
Ionic bonds occur between a Metal and a Non Metal, these elements are both non metals.
Is ammonium a metal or nonmetal?
ammonium NH4 does not state that is a metal or non metal because it has valency 1 that is a properties for a metal but also has nitrogen and hydrogen are both present in it which are both non metals , so it cannot be stated that ammonium is a metal or non metal.
Is hydrogen metal?
