Why is gold an element?
It is one pure metal with no other types of metal in it. This makes it an element.
What is the primary characteristic of an element that makes it a good insulator?
If the the number of electrons on the shell are stable.
Which element is a stable element?
A stable element is any non-radioactive element. All elements before element atomic number 84 (not including 84) - Polonium (Po) are stable elements.

If an element has one and only one stable isotope, an example is Gold.
What makes an element stable?
an element is stable when it has a full outer shell of electrons. to abide by the octet rule it must have a shell of 2 then 8 electrons. An element with a full outer shell (8) will be stable and act like its nearest noble gas.

Why is the age of a gold ingot is often mentioned because Gold is not radioactive?
natural isotope of gold is 197 and he is stable element and not with radioactive decay why the gold ingot are often associated with age?
Does every element has two stable isotopes?
No, Gold and several other elements have only one stable isotope, Promethium & Technetium as well as all elements heavier than Bismuth have no stable isotopes.
