Name the gas in air which tarnishes silver articles slowly.
Which metal becomes black in the presence of hydrogen sulphide gas in air?
Silver metal does not combine easily with oxygen but silver jewellery tarnishes after some time. How?
Silver articles become black on prolonged exposure to air. This is due to the formation ofAg3NAg2OAg2SAg2S and Ag3N
