Gold is a very unreactive metal and is found in its native state in the ground, platinum and silver also behave this way. Other metals that are not of this nature are found mixed in with rocks and these are called ores.
Because it is quite rare, hard to extract and it doesn´t rust or discolour making it ideal for jewelry.
Metals which are even more resistant to oxidation (not dissolved by conc. HNO_3) are called noble metals or royal metals
Because they are rare metals or uncommon metals
It's so rare and takes millions of years to make: lava, underground pressure etc.
It does nothing. It is called a noble metal for the reason, and that is in part why it is highly valued for jewelry, etc.
No, gold is a transition metal.
no
Gold is a "Noble Metal", which means its atoms do not readily share electrons with atoms of other elements.
No, it can only form (positve) cations being a metal (very noble, quite inert)
Gold is said to be noble metal because it is unreactive and does not react with either oxygen or water.
Gold.
No, gold is a non-ferrous, noble metal.
Noble metals are called platinic metals (platinum, palladium, rhodium, osmium, iridium, ruthenium) and also gold and silver.
Not so reactive !That's why it is called a noble metal.
It does nothing. It is called a noble metal for the reason, and that is in part why it is highly valued for jewelry, etc.
Nothing. Gold is a noble metal- it is not displaced by iron.
Gold is not in any of them.Gold is a group 11 element.
No, gold is a transition metal.
I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but focussing simply on the "least reactive" part: gold is not very reactive, which is why it's called a noble metal.
Gold is a noble metal and falls into the metal family on the periodic table in group 11.
Usually a noble metal, such as gold or platinum, and a diamond stone.
