Hydrogen is placed in the metal group because it only needs to lose one electron to be stable just like lithium, sodium, potassium etc
It also has the same number of valence electrons as the rest of the elements in group 1a. :)

What is the only nonmetal in group 14?
Carbon (C)
What is the family of hydrogen?
Hydrogen is placed in group 1, along with alkali metals
What Metal elements produces hydrogen gas when it is placed in hydrochloric acid?
Metal + Acid = Salt + Hydrogen Any metal that reacts with hydrochloric acid will form a metal chloride salt and hydrogen Sodium metal and hydrochloric acid
Why was the element hydrogen placed in group 1 of the periodic table?
Hydrogen has one valence electron.
Why hydrogen placed with the elements in group 1A?
because it has s1 configuration.
What is the only nonmetal in group 14?
Carbon (C)
Why is it that the hydrogen placed at the alkali earth metal group?
It is in alkaline group.Not in alkaline earth group.It is in alkaline group because, Hydrogen has maximum oxidation number of +1.It react with Halogens.Displaced by other alkaline metals.
In which group is hydrogen in periodic table?
it is placed in group 1
Why is the hydrogen in group while it is not a metal?
It is in Group 1.
Why is hydrogen placed in group one of the periodic table?
Group one metals are the Alkali Metals, but Hydrogen is placed in group one because of its electron arrangement. All group one metals have one electron in their valence shell (outer most shell) and hydrogen is no exception. It has one electron in its last shell, and is therefore placed in group one even though it is not an alkali metal.
What is the family of hydrogen?
Hydrogen is placed in group 1, along with alkali metals
Why is it that hydrogen belong to group IA that hydrogen is not a metal?
because hydrogen is in the form of gas and thus we can conclude that it is a non- metal
Why is hydrogen (H) placed with elements in Group 1A?
Properties of Hydrogen. Hydrogen is a nonmetal and is placed above group in the Periodic Table because it has ns1 electron configuration like the alkali metals.
What Metal elements produces hydrogen gas when it is placed in hydrochloric acid?
Metal + Acid = Salt + Hydrogen Any metal that reacts with hydrochloric acid will form a metal chloride salt and hydrogen Sodium metal and hydrochloric acid
What element of group 1 is not known as an alkali metal?
Hydrogen is in group 1 but is not an alkali metal.
What gas is produced when an active metal is placed into an acid?
Hydrogen gas.
What group 1 element is not an alkali metal?
The alkali metals are the metals in Group 1 (the first column of the periodic table). Hydrogen is also in Group 1, and so is technically considered to be part of the alkali metal group/family. Hydrogen is in fact a non-metal, however, and does not generally exhibit behavior similar to the other Group 1 elements.
