Answer #1

Send your gold to me and I will return it once I reduce it to a worthless matierial. heheh sorry couldnt resist.

Answer #2

gold is an element- true, but you can reduce it’s value by creating an alloy- melting it down and mixing with a less expensive metal- such as silver, copper, etc.

creating an alloy I believe would be the only way to decrease golds value.

Answer #3

if you split the atoms maybe

Answer #4

yah, if you got to particle accelerator just sittin around

Answer #5

No, it can’t, Gold is an element, therefore, it can’t be broken down into any simpler elements.

Answer #6

NO UNLESS THEY FIND SUM BETTER

Answer #7

you can turn gold into anything. you dont need a particle accelerator. just the changing number of protons will make it a different element or atom. no hard science there. but in doing so you could have a radioactive element.
