In chemistry terms, 'noble' is often applied to describe the inert gases of the 8th group in the Periodic Table. When applied to gold, it is used in the normal sense; noble meaning 'of a higher station or rank of importance', because of its low reactivity.

What highly active metal is a liquid it has 1 valence electron?

The lowest melting metal in group 1 (with 1 valence electron) is Francium (300 K, though not accurate). However it is not a liquid at room (or standard-) temperature. It is very reactive, but there are no stable isotopes (longest halftime 4 minutes for the most common found)
