Melting is a physical process.
No, melting always is physical.As to the previous answer: reacting gold with an acid is not melting but oxidation.
Physical.
No, that would only be a physical change.
It is a physical change (melting).
No it's not because all you are doing is melting the gold, putting in into a mold and letting it harden. It would be a chemical change if you added some other substance to it during the progress.
Melting of gold for jewellery making is a physical change as no new substance is formed after melting. Changes in state or phase are physical changes.
No, unless it reacted with a gas in the air around it. Melting is a physical change.
These are physical changes.
Because gold melted or boiled remain gold, any chemical transformation occur.
There is no chemical change necessary to form a gold nugget into a ring.
Physical
Forming a bar of gold into wire is a physical change, not a chemical change. In this process, the gold undergoes a change in shape and physical state, but its chemical composition remains unchanged.
