Gold is unreactive because all the noble gases have a stable electronic configuration, and therefore they would not share their electrons with other atoms.

The difference between the atomic mass and mass number of gold is that the average mass is the protons and neutrons combined. The mass number the amount of protons only. The mass number is 189 and the atomic number is 79. The mass number is larger than the atomic number.

Gold may be old, but we

always get it sold!
