Having a low chemical reactivity gold is useful to made very resistant objects and platings.
Gold is noble what means it is not reactive, most high in the electromotive series, meaning it is hard to being oxidized, give electrones. Gold compounds decompose under heat or light to free gold
Gold is more valuable than silver. durr.
the ancient treasure consists of valuable gold coins!gold Sculptures,gold jewels,the valuable things used by the pharohs...........etc
what makes Alaska special is its oil gold and seafood
it is valuable because gold is easy to spot and it is so shiney that it makes people risk their lives just to get it
Yes, gold and silver are at the bottom of the reactivity chart and therefore less likely to rust when in contact with water. Iron on the other hand, is at the top of the reactivity chart and will react to water in a way so that it would rust. This is why we do not use iron, which is cheap and durable, to make coins almost anytime in history.
It's scarcity is the only thing that makes it valuable.
Gold is low in reactivity because it has a stable electron configuration with a full outermost energy level. This full outer shell makes gold less likely to form chemical bonds with other elements, resulting in low reactivity. Additionally, the strong metallic bonds in gold make it resistant to oxidation and corrosion.
gold filled unlike g.p which is gold plated GF is full gold and makes the jewelry more valuable
it is rare, expensive, valuable and it looks nice too
the gold rush
