Write a balanced equation for the oxidation of gold by aqua regia.
A) Au(s) + 4H+(aq) + 4Cl−(aq) + NO3−(aq) → AuCl4−(aq) + NO(g) + 2H2O(l)
B) Au(s) + 4H+(aq) + NO3−(aq) → Au3+(aq) + NO(g) + 4H2O(l)
C) 2Au(s) + 6H2O(l) → 2Au(OH) 3(s) + 3H2(g)
D) 2Au(s) + 6H+(aq) + 6NO3−(aq) → 2Au3+(aq) + NO3−(aq) + 3H2(g)
E) 4Au(s) + 8CN−(aq) + O2(g) + 2H2O(l) → 4Au(CN) 2−(aq) + 4OH−(aq)
