2 thoughts on “What is the difference between platinum and gold?”

  1. 1. Chemical symbols are different:
    1, platinum (platinum) chemical symbols: PT.

    2, chemical symbols of gold: AU.

    . The color is different:

    1, platinum (platinum): white.

    2, color of gold: yellow, golden, bright yellow.

    . Different physical properties:
    1, platinum (platinum) physical properties: pure platinum is a glossy, ductive silver -white metal. Its ductility is the highest among all pure metals, which is better than gold, silver and copper, but its forging castability is lower than gold.

    2, the physical properties of gold: Strong ductility, 1 ounce of gold can be pulled 50 miles long. Its ductility makes it easy to cast and is a good choice for making jewelry. Gold is the strongest in the metal.

    The expansion information:
    It pure platinum is a glossy, ductive silver -white metal. The ductility is the highest among all pure metals, which is better than gold, silver and copper, but its forging castability is lower than gold. The corrosion resistance of platinum metal is extremely strong, very stable at high temperature, and the electrical properties are also very stable. It does not oxidize at any temperature, but can be eroded by various halogen, cyanide, sulfur and harsh alkali. Platinum is not soluble in hydrogen chlorine and nitric acid, but it will dissolve in the water of the hot king to form chloroplastin (H2PTCL6).

  2. 1. Different colors: Platinum and gold are very obvious. The difference is color. Platinum is also called platinum. The understanding from the name is white; the color of the gold is golden yellow. Essence Platinum white is now a very fashionable color and is loved by consumers at different ages. Although gold jewelry is also very popular, because of the color limit, not all people are suitable for wearing gold jewelry.

    2. Different properties: Platinum has strong ductility, friction resistance, corrosion resistance, very stable nature, high hardness, and toughness is much higher than other metals. Because of this nature, platinum can be arbitrarily created into different styles of jewelry. As we all know, gold is a very soft precious metal, which is easy to deform and is not easy to break. It is often made into exquisite necklaces.

    3. Different yield: platinum is the king of precious metals. The annual output is only 5%of gold, and the output of platinum in the world is very scarce. After more than 150 tons of ore, it takes several months to refine it to make only one gram of platinum ring. The characteristics of gold are soft, so it is difficult to inlay various exquisite styles.

    . From the perspective of the price and value of gold and platinum, the price and value of platinum are higher than gold, because platinum is difficult to minimize, the output is low, and the output of gold is higher than the output of gold than the output. Platinum production is much higher.
