Question

Why do gold ornaments look new even after several years of use?

Solution

Gold is a least reactive metal. It does not react with air, water, acids, alkalis and other gases in the environment. Due to this non-reactive nature, gold metal's shine lasts for years and gold ornaments look new even after several years of use.
