The corrosion resistance of copper is great! But if the hardness was better and the strength it would be way better than titanium in some cases (not the melting point)!!!

What metal turns green and why?
Copper turns green after a while because of weathering and corrosion. It is in general the Oxygen in our atmosphere that bonds with the copper, forming a protective layer of "green" oxydation or corrosion. Further information: Many buildings have copper-roofs. It is a metal that is easy to cut and form. It is also highly corrosion resistant because the corrosion formed also protects it from further corrosion. Acid rain however is able to wash away part of the corrosion formed. This mean that in highly polluted areas, Copper is not such a good choice. The Statue of Liberty used to be the iconic copper color.

What is a hypothesis for how pH in water Affects Copper Corrosion?
If the water's pH is more acidic (lower pH) then the effects of copper corrosion will be faster and more pronounce. If the water is less acidic (Higher pH) copper corrosion will take longer and be less pronounce.

How do you store copper?
Copper can be stored in bottles containing water, such that none of the copper is exposed to air, as this can cause the corrosion of copper.
What are some examples of corrosion?
Iron and steel rusting is an example of corrosion. Copper pitting or the green patina one sees on copper roofs are also examples of corrosion. Stress Cracking is also considered an example of corrosion.
