Explanation:
Metals react with water according to the activity series of metals. The highly reactive metals like potassium, sodium and calcium react vigorously with water to form a base and evolve hydrogen gas. ... The metals further down like gold and silver do not react at all with water.
Non-metals don't react directly with water but non –metals acidic oxides react with water to form acids

Bonjour!
Metals react with water and produce a metal oxide and hydrogen gas. Metal oxides that are soluble in water dissolve in it to further form metal hydroxide. But all metals do not react with water.
Metals like sodium and pottasium react violently with cold water.
Au revoir!
