Going once, going twice...gold!

Hello
We're students from Worcester, South Africa researching the charcteristics of gold for a horrendous science project...due soon...HELP! We need the following:
1) In which two substances will gold dissolve readily?
2) With which substances will gold react?

PLEASE HELP!

Love us

We do love you, Clare -- but have you heard of tough love? :-)

So I'll just give you the hint to search for "aqua regia gold".
