Solution

The correct option is C Gold
The products of acid/metal reactions are a salt and hydrogen gas. Some metals are so unreactive that they do not react with dilute acids at all. These metals all are less active than hydrogen. This means that they will not displace the hydrogen ions in acids, and thus will not dissolve in acids.
