Can gold be created from other elements? why?

1 answer:

8 0

Answer:

yes, gold can be created from other elements. The process requires nuclear reactions and is so expensive that currently it would cost a lot more than the price of natural gold available, therefore, unprofitable. Gold is the chemical element with 79 protons in each atomic nucleus. Every atom containing 79 protons is a gold atom, and all gold atoms behave the same chemically. In principle, gold can be created by simply assembling 79 protons, (and enough neutrons to make the nucleus stable).
