No.
Chemically "Catching Fire" is a process of Oxidizing a substance.
At it's most basic you combine Methane and Oxygen to produce Water and Carbon Dioxide
Other fuels than Methane will produce more complex products (ash!) but the basic idea is the same. Gold is an Inert Metal - it doesn't Oxidize (also meaning it doesn't rust since the chemistry is much the same) so it can't catch fire.
Pure Gold will not burn - impurities and other things alloyed in with it might tho so don't chuck your wedding ring in the fire yet!

∙ 7y agoA substance is flammable if it will readily react with oxygen in a fairly rapid and exothermic (heat-releasing) chemical reaction that we call fire. Gold is a highly non-reactive metal. It does not easily react with oxygen or most other substance. This low reactivity is why gold does not tarnish or corrode, which is part of the reason it is so valuable.

it is a liquid when its in the can but when its out it is a gas, it doe sfeel a bit like liquid but it isnt dense enough
Is a pure substance flammable?
Some are flammable and some are not. This depends on the chemical properties of the individual substance. Nonflammable pure substance include helium, water, and gold. Flammable pure substances include hydrogen, hexane, and magnesium.
Is gel flammable?
Yes, some gels are flammable. How flammable would depend on it's alcohol, or flammable substance content. Some gels are not flammable at all, and others a very flammable.
