changing iron into gold by chemical method?

Question

any other option to change iron into gold

Answer 1

There is no chemical method to change any element into another element.

If you want to change iron into gold then you will need to alter the atomic structure of every atom of iron in your sample - in short you will need a nuclear reaction. The process will cost more than the value of the gold you produce.

Answer 2

Not by chemical means. It would cost you more than you would make on the gold to change iron to gold. Nuclear fusion would really be the only way to do this. You would probably find this reaction happening near the sun's center, but not likely to happen here on earth.

Answer 3

Iron can not be changed to gold through chemical means

However, Iron pyrites (Fe2S) has a gold like lustre and is called fool's gold.

Iron can be changed to gold by a nuclear reaction but it is energetically extremely expensive.

Answer 4

This cannot be done by chemical method with iron. But could be done in a particle accelerator or a nuclear reactor by the irradiation of mercury or platinum.

Answer 5

All metal atoms are made of the same building blocks of protons, neutrons and electrons, but in different quantities, so in theory it could be possible to change base metals into gold or any other metal of value to mankind. In practice, it is achieved only in nuclear reactions, where heavy radioactive metals decay into other lighter elements, including some isotopes of gold. However, man's ancient dream of turning base metals into gold is not a practical proposition. So it remains a dream!

Answer 6

This is impossible , as only radioactive materials will decay or be converted into other elements. The material that forms by radioactive decay or by neutron absorption will itself be radioactive. This will continue until lead is formed. There is no feasible way that iron can be converted to gold, otherwise we will be doing it now.

Answer 7

The only way to do this is to bombard the the iron with protons (and nutrons). This uses extremely high amounts of energy and yields very little.
The process is called transmutation.

Answer 8

Not by any known or unknown chemical method. Otherwise the earth will be too rich.
Alchemy, may be a solution.

Answer 9

Houdini Act!!! Abracadbra - the only solution to your requirement.
Scientifically impossible to change an element into another.

Answer 10

PHILOSOPHER'S STONE.But until its invention, be satisfied with Fool's Gold-Iron pyrite.
