Generally H2 ( hydrogen gas )
2 HCl (aq) + Zn (s) >> ZnCl2 ( aq)+ H2 (g)

Metal may or may not react with acids.
e.g. Gold and Platinum don't
Different acid may give different result. In general, base on Activity Series, Iron, Nickel, Lead react with acid to produce hydrogen gas.
Metal + 2 HCl -> Metal chloride + H2
Cu does not react with HCl, but it reacts with nitric acid to produce NO, which is also a gas.

The salt of that metal and acid and hydrogen gas (as long as the metal is reactive enough, not like copper, for example).

HYDROGEN.
Metal+Acid=Salt+Hydrogen
E.g
Mg(s)+dil.Hcl(aq)=MgCl2(aq)+H2(g)
