Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the normal boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which its vapor pressure equals 1 atmosphere (1 atm).
Recognize that gold (Au) is a metal with a very high boiling point compared to many other substances due to strong metallic bonding.
Recall or look up the standard physical properties of gold, specifically its boiling point at 1 atm pressure, from reliable reference sources such as a chemistry handbook or database.
Compare the given temperature options (2856°C, 3422°C, 1064°C, 174°C) with the known boiling point range of gold to identify the correct value.
Select the temperature that matches the known normal boiling point of gold at 1 atm, which is significantly higher than typical boiling points of non-metallic substances.
