Answer:

Metals react with water to form metal hydroxide and hydrogen gas, but when metals react with steam, they form metal oxide and hydrogen.

Explanation:

If water reacts with steam, the metal oxide is formed. This is because the metal hydroxides thermally decompose (split up on heating) to give the oxide and water.

hope it helps..
