Gold does not react with sulfuric acid.
The only acid that gold reacts with is aqua regia: a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid, optimally in a molar ratio of 1:3.
Gold is one of the least reactive metal. When gold is mixed with acid, it does not react or dissolve. Gold reacts only with AQUA REGIA [three parts of concentrated hydrochloric acid and one part of nitric acid.] AQUA REGIA can dissolve almost all metals.
There are several metals which do not react with sulfuric acid; once such metal is gold.
Nothing happens. Gold will not react with sulfuric acid.
The symbol equation for the reaction between gold and sulfuric acid is Au + H2SO4 → Au2(SO4)3 + H2. In this reaction, gold (Au) reacts with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to form gold sulfate (Au2(SO4)3) and hydrogen gas (H2). The balanced equation shows the stoichiometry of the reaction, indicating that one mole of gold reacts with three moles of sulfuric acid to produce one mole of gold sulfate and one mole of hydrogen gas.
A mixture of hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid is typically referred to as "aqua regia." This highly corrosive mixture is used for dissolving noble metals such as gold and platinum.

This is because gold is not reactive enough. Metals below hydrogen in the reactive series will not react with sulphuric acid.
No, sulfuric acid cannot dissolve gold. Aqua regia, a mixture of nitric acid and hydrochloric acid, is typically used to dissolve gold.
Nothing, gold doesn't react with sulphuric acid
Nothing happens because gold doesn't react with sulfuric acid.
Gold does not react with sulphuric acid under normal conditions. Gold is a noble metal and is resistant to corrosion by acids, including sulphuric acid.
There are two sulphides of gold - Gold(I) sulfide (Au2S) and gold(III) sulfide, (Au2S3). Gold sulphides can be prepared treating gold chloride with hydrogen sulfide or by treating dicyanoaurate: in the reaction H2S + 2 KAu(CN)2 → Au2S + 2 KCN + 2 HCN
Zinc metal reacts with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to produce zinc sulfate (ZnSO4) and hydrogen gas (H2). The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: Zn + H2SO4 -> ZnSO4 + H2.
