The quality that differentiates hydrogen (H) from the other elements in group 1, the alkali metals, is **"It is a non-metal."**

While hydrogen shares the same group with alkali metals due to having one valence electron, it differs significantly in its physical and chemical properties, classifying it as a non-metal rather than a metal like the others in group 1.
