Top 10 Most Expensive Substances In The World by kizbad: 7:06am On Nov 03, 2014
10. Gold – $100/gram

Pure gold is soft and it usually comes in alloyed form, which means gold is given not in pure but mixed form because of its extreme softness. The metals like silver, copper, platinum or palladium help increasing the strength of gold. This substance is used in making jewelry, decorative items, dental fillings and coins. Gold is a good conductor of heat and electricity, and does not tarnish when exposed to air. Gold costs differently from nation to nation, but its international price is around $100/gram.
