प्रश्न
Name the gas in air which tarnishes silver articles slowly.
उत्तर
Hydrogen sulphide gas in the air tarnishes silver articles slowly. Silver reacts with hydrogen sulphide gas in the air and forms a thin black layer of silver sulphide (Ag2S) on it. Therefore, silver jewellery or ornaments become dull due to the formation of silver sulphide coating on their surface.
