If it's gold plating over silver than, yes it will. Depending on the thickness of the plating and how much you wear it will determine how long it will last.
Yes. You can coat, that is plate a gold item with a layer of white gold. The item will look like it was originally made in white gold at this point. One issue is that the layer will eventually wear off. The life of the plating will depend on its thickness and how often it is worn. Lifetime of plating in this manner is 6 months to 10 years range.
It can be Rhodium plated to give it the appearance of white gold. However, over time this plating will wear off and the original yellow gold will begin to show through and you will have to get it re-plated. Contact your local jeweler for more information.
There is no definitive "best" gold plating solution as it depends on the specific application and desired outcome. However, a commonly used gold plating solution is one that contains gold cyanide, which provides good conductivity, brightness, and durability. It is important to consult with a specialist or conduct thorough research to select the most appropriate gold plating solution for your specific needs.
Depends on the thickness of the coated layer of gold on the steel,thicker the longer. As for the duration of its lasting,its exposure to moisture and corrosion (air,sweat,oil) and general wear and tear will all influence it. A steel object's gold plating should be preserved in Vacuum and not suffer any wear and tare or exposure to moisture and corrosion to last for ever!!
It can wear off especially when in contact with water or harsh chemicals
Since gold is impervious to most acids, which is one of its defining properties, the most probable method is wear and tear. The more it is passed around and handled, the more the gold will wear off. The gold plating content of a coin cannot be recovered as pure gold without an expensive smelting process.
Gold electoplate will not likely "tarnish" but it can wear off your jewelry especially if you wear it alot or expose it to harsh chemicals. That's one reason its great to purchase jewelry that comes with a lifetime replacement guarantee then if the plating wears off you can get them replaced!
Yes it is. If gold-plated jewelry is worn often, the plating will wear off and expose the base metal beneath.
Gold Filled: Gold filled is an actual layer of gold-pressure bonded to another metal. Gold filled is not to be confused with gold plating as filled literally has 100% more gold than gold plating. Gold filled is much more valuable and tarnish resistant. It does not flake off, rub off or turn colors. As a matter of fact, anyone who can wear gold can wear gold filled without worries of any allergic reaction to the jewelry. Gold filled jewelry is an economical alternative to solid gold!

Gold Plating is sometimes used to finish off certain community buildings eg grade school. Hope this helped :)
Gold plating depends on the spot price of gold. Gold plating is extremely thin, but gold is expensive too.
Elctroplated gold is gold plating on other metals. The object shines and looks as gold because of the gold plating. Anode and cathode are used for gold plating.
This will depend on the material you are interested in plating with. As the price of gold goes up, even plating with gold will become more and more expensive. Plating with silver will be less pricey than plating with gold.
In order for silver to adhere to gold, or any other metal, it has to be rubbed in slowly. Silver plating is sold as a paste and it is used like a tarnish remover by rubbing and buffing several coats in until the desired color and sheen is achieved. The plating can be removed with a high quality gold cleaner and it will wear off fairly quickly.
