2 Sir Isaac Newton March December 1642 – 20 March 1727. was an English physicist, mathematician, astronomer natural philosopher, alchemist and theologian who is perceived and considered by a substantial number of scholars and the general public as one of the most influential men in history. His 1687 publication of the Philosopher Naturalis Principia Mathematica(usually called the Principia is considered to be among the most influential books in the history of science Isaac Newton

3 1717 - Sir Isaac Newton as Master of the established a fixed price for Gold. in 1717 This price fix remained constant for over 200 years until after the First World War. Unlike any other element on earth, almost all Sir Isaac Newton as Master of the Royal established a fixed price for Gold

4 In mathematics, Newton shares the credit with Gottfried Leibniz for the development of the differential and integral calculus. He also demonstrated the generalised binomial theorem, developed the so-called "Newton's method" for approximating the zeroes of a function, and contributed to the study Newton built the first practical reflecting telescope and developed a theory of colour based on the observation that a prism decomposes white light into the many colours that form the visible spectrum. He also formulated an empirical law of coolingand studied the speed of sound Died31 March 1727 Born 4 January 1643(1643- 01-04)

5 A total of 161,000 tons of gold have been mined in human history as of 2009. Modern industrial uses include dentistry and electronics where gold has traditionally found use because of its good resistance to oxidative corrosion and excellent quality as a conductor of electricity. Chemically gold is a transition metal and can form trivalent and univalent cations in solutions. Compared with other metals, pure gold is more chemically unreactive, but it is attacked by aqua regia a mixture of acids forming chloroauric acid and by alkaline solutions of cyanide but not by single acids such as hydrochloric nitric or sulfuric acids. Gold dissolves in mercury forming amalgam alloys
