Gold (Au), silver (Ag), platinum (Pt), ruthenium (Ru), rhodium (Rh), palladium (Pd), iridium (Ir), and osmium (Os) all have similar properties and are considered to be precious metals.1 Many of these elements were found in platinum ores. Scientists used aqua regia, an acid that can dissolve metals like gold which single acids cannot do alone, to find the pure substance of the platinum ores. They ended up

converter uses two stages to accomplish the process of reducing toxic emissions, the first stage takes place on the reduction catalyst. The second stage of the process happens on the oxidation catalyst. Platinum and rhodium are the metals used for the reduction catalyst and oxidation catalyst uses platinum and palladium. The use of rhodium is very important because it enhances the purification of the gases to be emitted since palladium does not perform well in the purification process. Automobile converters
