gold is used in things such as rings, masks, jewels.... It is used in the electronics indestry.
The Ancient Hebrews traded silver, gold, and land. But electronics weren't invented until the 19th Century.
Everybody can use gold, but it can be found in computers and most electronics, in jewelry, and artwork.
Most. Copper, zinc, tin, silver and gold are found in small amounts in most electronics.
There are no places that will pay you for old electronics by weight. The components inside the electronics are practically worthless. The only part inside of any electronic that is worth anything is on the circuit boards or motherboards, and the only parts that are worth anything on those are the gold plated connectors. There are companies that will take electronics and melt them down and burn away anything that isnt the gold. Mind you that the amount gold in electronics is very very little. You wont get much if anything for the gold inside one electronic device. The companies that do harvest the gold in this manor get the electronics from recycling. Which means they dont really pay people for their old stuff.
Gold is primarily used in jewelry and electronics. It's both valuable and an excellent conductor of electricity.
Possible use in electronics for military equipment, aircrafts.
- gold has an yellow color - gold is expensive - gold is very malleable - gold is very ductile - gold is not corroded - gold is used for jewelry - gold is also used in electronics - gold was used in dentistry - colloidal gold was used in medicine
Gold is good in the economical sense that it retains value better than other metals. When using gold in areas of electronics, gold good because it is a great conductor of electricity.
Gold is used for a wide variety of applications ranging from jewelry and the arts to dentistry, electronics, and diverse industrial applications.
It won't do anything--gold doesn't oxidize like copper and silver do. This is why really high-end electronics use gold-plated connectors.
Some electronics have gold plated connectors, made of "real gold" to increase conduction and reduce corrosion. However, the plating is very thin.
