Yes it does in what is called an ionic reaction, where the silver gives of electrons to oxygen, the result beeing silver oxide (Ag2O). All metals react with non-metals in this way. NaCl is probebly the most famouse of these ionic reactions as the result is normal table salt, but it is in no sense unique. Also some metals will react more readely with the non-metals.

What happens when silver reacts with oxygen?

When silver reacts with oxygen, it forms silver oxide. This can create a tarnish layer on the surface of the silver, giving it a dull appearance. Silver oxide can be removed by polishing the silver surface.


Why ag turn black on contact with air?

Silver tarnishes in air because it reacts with the oxygen to form silver oxide.


Silver plus oxygen equals?

When silver reacts with oxygen, it forms silver oxide (Ag2O). Silver oxide is a brownish-black compound commonly produced as a thin layer on the surface of silver objects over time.


What reacts with or changes silver?

Silver reacts with sulfuric and nitric acid.


Is tarnished silver a mixture element or compound?

Tarnished silver is a chemical compound. When silver reacts with sulfur and oxygen in the air, it forms silver sulfide, which gives silver items a tarnished appearance. This compound is not easily removed by physical means and requires chemical cleaning to restore the silver's luster.


What about tarnishing of silver is chemical or physical change?

It's a chemical change. A thin layer of silver on the surface reacts with oxygen in the air - to form silver oxide.


Is formation of silver sulfide when silver reacts with sulfur in the air a physical change?

chemical, specifically an "oxidation" reaction (even though oxygen is not involved).


Is it possible for copper to have a silver color?

Yes, it is possible for copper to have a silver color through a process called oxidation, where the surface of the copper reacts with oxygen in the air to form a silver-colored patina.


What metal reacts quickest copper gold iron silver?

Gold does not react with air or water, so it does not tarnish or corrode easily. Copper reacts slowly with air and water to form a patina. Silver reacts with sulfur compounds in the air to form tarnish. Iron reacts quickly with oxygen to form iron oxide (rust).


What happens when silver reacts with air?

When silver reacts with air, it forms a thin layer of silver oxide on its surface due to the presence of oxygen. This silver oxide layer is a dull gray color and can create a tarnished appearance on the silver. Regularly polishing the silver can help remove this tarnish.


What metal is used in the reaction of metal and air?

Metals in the reactivity series from aluminium to copper react with oxygen in the air to form the metal oxide. Aluminium and Zinc reacts very quickly, Iron reacts slowly at room temperature. Tin, Lead and Copper reacts with Oxygen in air when heated. Silver, Gold and Platinum do not react with Oxygen in air


What gas reacts with metals?

Several gasses can react with metals, but due to the fact that you are asking for a single gas, the most likely answer that you will be looking for is Oxygen. Oxygen reacts with many metals (and non-metals).
