Au - Gold - periodic table of the elements

Gold is the "Grand Dame" of precious metals and known the world over. Once used only for money and gold jewelry, gold has found many uses in modern technology. This metal is not very reactive and is often found in electronics and micromechanics. Compounds, notably the chloride, are used in archival photoprocessing and analytical chemistry.
