Metals not being found in a free state depends on their reactivity. Some highly reactive metals are found in combined state like sodium. Wheras noble and less reacitive metals like gold and silver are found in the free state not chemically combined with any substance.

Answer:
Most of the metals are found in the form of their compounds, i.e., in the combined state. It is because, their position is above hydrogen in the chemical reactivity series and hence, readily react with air, water, carbon dioxide, etc. They are found in the form of their sulphides, carbonates or oxides.
