What is a sacrifical metal?

Why is gold not used for sacrificial protection?

Sacrificial protection is only effective if the metal used for sacrificial protection is more reactive than Iron in the reactivity series. Since gold is one of the least reactive metals in the reactivity series, it would not get oxidized in the place of Iron. A more reactive metal than Iron, e.g. Zinc, is used as the Zinc metal would oxidize in the place of iron, thus preventing Iron from rusting.
