Gold's atomic number is 79 and its symbol is Au. This element needs no introduction. Gold has been mined, panned, fought over, worn, and spent since the stone age around 40,000BC. Gold appears to be the first metal employed by humans since it can be found in its native form in nature, has a low melting point, and is relatively soft. Besides the obvious monetary use of gold, it is also used for decoration, jewelry, corrosion-resistant electrical contacts, dentistry, and even food. Show more
