Yes, .925 silver can tarnish and appear dirty. A good polish will help keep your silver clean and prevent tarnishing.
Yes, unless it is worn regularly or it has an antitarnish coating. Also, a silver plated item will tarnish.
.925 is a silver content. Sterling silver being 92.5% or higher silver content, the remaining alloys are 7.5%. Some alloys may slow tarnish, but there is no alloy that will eliminate the need for polishing. .750 or 18k gold wont tarnish but may change color with age depending on the remaining .250 alloys. If you are asking if 18k gold plating over a .925 sterling silver base will tarnish, the answer will be when the goldplating has worn off exposing the base metal to the elements, It will tarnish like any other silver.
Real Silver has the numbers 925 on it, but fake Silver doesn't. And real silver won't fade, but will tarnish and fake will fade and turn into like a copper color.
exposure to substances which react with the surface of the metal, usually sulphur. Sterling silver is .925 (925%) pure silver. The other .75 is made up of an alloy consisting mainly of copper which oxidizes over time. When copper is exposed to oxygen, it darkens and eventually turns green. Sterling silver doesn't usually turn green but will turn almost black if not protected. Fine silver or .999 silver doesn't tarnish. Argentium silver is a new type of sterling silver that is tarnish-resistant. Only certain chemicals will tarnish Argentium but it will not tarnish from oxidation. Some metals that contain little to no silver are branded with names that make it seem like real silver. One of these metals is nickle silver, which doesn't contain any silver at all.
Pure silver can tarnish but not as easily as Sterling Silver.
I believe it is .925 silver with a platinum coating to retard tarnish.

Oxidized silver is not necessarily sterling silver but sterling silver can be oxidized. Oxidation is a finish on silver, otherwise known as tarnish. Sterling silver can tarnish and silver plate can tarnish, too.
