Answer:
Metals such as gold and platinum do not corrode visibly because they are unaffected by oxygen and most acids, and are more stable than many of their compounds, such as oxides or sulfides. This lack of chemical reactivity led to them being called noble metals.

Explanation:
In the activity series, metals are on the top of the series react and corrode easily as these metals are highly reactive like iron corrodes easily in the presence of water and air forming its oxide layer while metals present at the bottom are least reactive and do not corrode easily like gold, silver and platinum are some of them.
