Metals are solids and hydrogen is gas. Yes, the reaction between metal and hydrogen is possible. Atomic hydrogen is very reactive. It combines with most elements to form hydrides (e.g., sodium hydride, NaH), and it reduces metallic oxides, a reaction that produces the metal in its elemental state. Almost all metals and nonmetals react with hydrogen at high temperatures. Only a few reactive metals react with hydrogen to form metal hydrides. For example: When hydrogen gas is passed over heated sodium, then sodium hydride is formed. (b) Non-metals react with hydrogen to form covalent hydrides. For example: Sulphur combines with hydrogen to form hydrogen sulphide
