Explanation:
Comparison of Chemical Properties of Metals and Non-metals
Metals on reacting with water form metal oxides or metal hydroxides and release H2 gas. Non-metals cannot give electrons to hydrogen in water to be released as H2 gas. Non-metals have no reaction with water. Metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides.
