Only four metals—gold, platinum, palladium, and rhodium—can dissolve in aqua regia, a highly corrosive mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids. Aqua regia is capable of breaking down noble metals that are typically resistant to other acids. This unique property makes it valuable in processes such as gold refining and the recovery of precious metals.
