    Answer: Alkaline metals (Group 1)

    Explanation:

    These elements react vigorously with cold water to give hydrogen gas and they have one electron in their outer-most shell which allows them to give electron freely and are good reducing agents.

    examples of these elements are:

    Hydrogen

    Lithium

    Sodium

    Potassium

    Rubidium

    Hydrogen is the only gas in group 1.
