Direction

Choose the correct option from the sentences below. 

Statement A: Rust is iron oxide, silver tarnish is silver sulfide, and copper tarnish is copper oxide.
Statement B: Corrosion is the gradual “eating away” of a metal.

  1. Statement A is correct, and statement B is wrong.  
  2. Statement B is correct, and statement A is wrong.
  3. Both the statements are correct.   
  4. Both the statements are wrong.

hintHint:

Corrosion happens when metal reacts with non metals.

The correct answer is: Both the statements are correct.


    • Rust and copper tarnish are formed when iron and copper react with oxygen to form oxides leading to corrosion.
    • Silver tarnish is formed when silver reacts with sulfur in the air.
    • Corrosion leads to formation of compounds which do not have metal like properties hence it eats away the metal.
