What are unreactive metals?
metals which dont react with water or acid are called unreactive metals
Why is it better to make jewelry out of gold then zinc?
Gold is an ideal metal in jewelry because it is highly unreactive which means it doesn't react with anything unless under certain conditions. Because it is unreactive, it does not react with things like water. When certain metals are mixed with water, they rust. Since gold is unreactive it will not rust or tarnish which makes it an ideal metal for jewelry
