The quality that differentiates hydrogen (H) from the other elements in group 1, the alkali metals, is:
**It is a non-metal.**
While hydrogen does share some similarities with alkali metals, such as having one valence electron, it is fundamentally different in its physical and chemical properties, classifying it as a non-metal rather than a metal like the other elements in group 1.
**It is a non-metal.**
