Gold rarely bonds, but can bond with halogens
helium and carbon are non metals. Gold is a metal
As a mass, gold can only be yellow. But as a very fine powder, it can be black or dark red. Gold is usually alloyed with other metals for use in jewelry, since pure gold is soft and deforms easily; depending on which other metals are used, gold jewelry can be anywhere from pink to white or even have a slightly greenish tinge. "White gold" and "red gold" are examples of specific gold alloys.
Gold is an element with the symbol Au, and therefore it is not a mixture. However, commercial gold is often mixed with other metals to help it maintain its shape while still looking like pure gold, because gold is very soft compared to other metals. So gold jewelry, unless it is made of 24 carat gold, is a mixture, not a compound, but pure, unaltered gold is not a mixture, but an element.
Gold (and alloys), silver (and alloys), platinum and rarely other metals.
Stamped 55 on gold ring
pure gold is 24 Karat gold and is 99.99% pure a ring made of 18 karat gold is 75 % gold and 25 % other metals a 14 Kt gold is 58.3% pure and the balance other metals such as silver copper
Gold is very soft metal and by adding other metals it can be used to make jewelry and other things.
to cause stronger metals
Really none. That is why gold is so valuable. While other metals have similar properties to gold, none of them have the exact same. The closest metals to gold in terms of its properties are silver, platinum and palladium.
Gold is a relatively soft metal and wears away easily. Adding other metals to gold can give it more strength and durability.

Because gold is an element.
Gold is hardened by other metals to make it useable
Gold is a natural source of gold. Gold is a metal. Gold is an element; there are no other metals that are part of gold itself. Ore that contains gold, however, might also contain varying amounts of other metals.
Gold can be mixed with Mercury - formation of an amalgam; also gold can form alloys with many other metals.
