It depends what you consider 'active'. Out of the non metals the most reactive is usually Fluorine as it's electon arrangement causes it to react well with anything with a spare electon.

Acids combine with active metals to give off H2?

Yes, when acids react with active metals, they produce hydrogen gas. This reaction is a redox reaction in which the metal displaces hydrogen from the acid to form a metal salt and hydrogen gas is released. This is a common way to test for the reactivity of metals with acids.


Is hydrogen in the nitrogen family?

No, hydrogen is not in the nitrogen family. Hydrogen is a nonmetal and sits in a class of its own in the periodic table because it has unique properties that distinguish it from the other elements. The nitrogen family includes elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and bismuth.


How many non metals are there and the names?

Do acids react with metals that are more or less active than hydrogen to form a compound of the metal and hydrogen gas?

No. Some of the less reactive metals, such as platinum, gold, silver, copper, and rhenium will not undergo this reaction. Copper and silver will react with nitric acid to produce nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a toxic brown gas. Gold and platinum will react with aqua regia, a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid, in a similar manner. Rhenium will not react with any acid.

What is an example of active gas?

These inert gases are used in gas tungsten arc welding, and also in gas metal arc welding for the welding of non-ferrous metals. Semi-inert shielding gases, or activeshield gases, include carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen. These active gases are used with GMAW on ferrous metals.
