Examples of elements that exist as free metal in nature include gold, silver, and copper. These elements are often found in their metallic form in the Earth's crust and are relatively unreactive.
Yes, the halogens did occur in nature as free elements.
Argon is found in the Earth's atmosphere, where it exists as a free element. It is also commonly found in combination with other elements in minerals such as feldspar, micas, and zeolites.
Gold is the metal that occurs in a free state in nature. It is usually found in its pure form, uncombined with other elements, making it easily recognizable and highly valued.
The noble gases.
Most elements are sufficiently reactive so it can not exist in elemental form.

A free element refers to an element that exists in nature in its pure form without being combined with other elements. These elements are often found in the Earth's crust and can be easily isolated without the need for chemical reactions. Examples of free elements include gold, silver, and oxygen.
Two elements that commonly occur in nature as liquids are mercury and bromine. Mercury is a naturally occurring liquid metal, while bromine is a non-metallic element that exists as a liquid at room temperature.
Gold is the metal that occurs in a free state in nature. It is usually found in its pure form, uncombined with other elements, making it easily recognizable and highly valued.
Platinum usually exists uncombined in nature or alloyed with iridium.

Sodium is a highly reactive metal that easily forms compounds with other elements due to its tendency to lose an electron to achieve stability. This reactivity prevents sodium from existing in its pure form in nature. It is usually found combined with other elements, such as chloride in salt (sodium chloride).
Most elements are sufficiently reactive so it can not exist in elemental form.
There are metals and metallic elements in our bodies that we need, so no.
because they are too reactive to exist on their own, they bond with other elements in nature to satisfy their need for electrons
