Heya,
⏩ Metals do not evolve hydrogen gas with nitric acid because it is a strong oxidising agent.
⏩ The Hydrogen gas produced during its reaction with metal gets oxidised to H2O.
⏩ Hence no hydrogen gas is produced. Instead it evolves nitric oxides such as NO2,NO etc.
HOPE IT HELPS:)

Metals do not evolve hydrogen gas with nitric gas because it is a strong oxidizing agent. Hence the H2 gas produced during the reaction get oxidised due to H2O. That's why metals do not evolve H2 gas with nitric acid
Hope you will be understood

Nitric acid(HNO3) is a strong oxidising agent. The Hydrogen gasproduced during its reaction withmetal gets oxidised to H2O, hence no hydrogen gas is produced. Instead itevolves nitric oxides such as NO2,NOetc.
