Gold is an element and is therefore not chemically bonded with any other element. It exists in its pure form as a single element with the symbol Au.

Here's why:

* Elements are the simplest pure substances that cannot be broken down further by chemical means. They are found on the periodic table.

* Mixtures are combinations of two or more substances that are not chemically bonded. They can be separated by physical means (like filtering, evaporation, etc.).

Since gold is a pure element, it cannot be a mixture. It doesn't have any other elements chemically bonded to it.
