Metals react with dilute acid to produce metal salt and hydrogen gas
Whereas ,
Non metals do not react with dilute acid .
You must have found that non- metals generally do not react with acids but metals react with acids and produce hydrogen gas that burns with a 'pop' sound. You must have noticed that copper does not react with dilute hydrochloric acid even on heating but it reacts with sulphuric acid.
