Silver does not combust as it is not a very reactive metal. It corrodes slowly by reacting with oxygen in the atmosphere.

Which non metal is kept under water and why?
Phosphorus - to keep the oxygen in the air from oxidizing it.
What happens when you burn KCl?
Burning is otherwise known as combustion. When you combust a substance you react it with oxygen and yield water and carbon dioxide. So, when you burn Potassium Chloride you get -- KCl+O2--> H2O+CO2
What is the combustibility of silver?
If you mean flammable, then in the regular sense of the word, no, it does not burn by fire. But some silver compounds will combust if given the correct circumstances (e.g. silver oxide)
What kind of reaction takes place when a copper wire is added to a beaker of silver nitrate?
The copper and silver will combust.
How anions reacts with silver nitrate?
how anions react with silver nitrate
Does the element silver react with oxygen and water?
no
Why metals such as gold and silver did not react with oxygen?
colour
How fast will rubidium react with oxygen?
Rubidium is a highly reactive metal and will react quickly with oxygen in the air. It will combust spontaneously, forming rubidium oxide (Rb2O), which is a white solid. The reaction is exothermic, releasing energy in the form of heat.
Which non metal is kept under water and why?
Phosphorus - to keep the oxygen in the air from oxidizing it.
What properties is possessed by gold but not possessed by silver?
the ability to not react with oxygen in the air.

What is a purpose of a piston?
It is used to compress the oxygen and fuel and cause it to to combust
Will methane gas combust and raise steam temperature further if added to steam 600 degrees C in a chamber?
Methane needs oxygen to combust so it would depend on how much oxygen there is in the chamber.

Jewelry is often made from metals such as silver or gold. Which of the following properties is possessed by gold but not possessed by silver?
the ability to not react with oxygen in the air
Why doesn't water formed by hydrogen and oxygen combust?
Because the hydrogen and oxygen are already chemically combined.
Does fire need carbon to burn?
No. Only oxygen is sufficient for something to combust.
