Hydrogen is a [[1]].(Metal/Non-Metal)

Since an element cannot be divided into simpler substances or built from simpler substances using traditional chemical or physical processes, it is the most fundamental sort of matter. There are 118 known elements, 92 of which are found naturally while the remaining ten have been created artificially. Elements are divided into metals, non-metals, and metalloids based on their properties, which are related to their positions in the periodic table.

We can define metals as elements that shed electrons to produce positive ions during chemical reactions. As a result, metals have low ionisation energy and are electropositive elements. They are durable, have a brilliant lustre, can resonate sound, and are superior heat and electrical conductors. Metals, with the exception of Mercury, are solids under normal circumstances.

Non-metals, as opposed to metals, are substances that seem to pick up electrons and produce anions in chemical reactions. These electronegative elements are abundant in ionisation energy. They are poor heat and electrical conductors that are brittle and drab (except graphite).

Therefore, Hydrogen is a non-metal.

Hence, the answer is Non-metal.
