Answer:

Metals can react with water, acid and oxygen. The reactivity of the metal determines which reactions the metal participates in.

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, acids react with metals to give salt and release hydrogen gas. In general, bases do not react with metals and release hydrogen gas.When metals react with other substances, the metal atoms lose electrons to form positive ions .
