Recorded sources
8 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that silver tarnishes in air?

Yes. Reference and historical sources state that silver tarnishes in air, generally through reaction with sulfur compounds present in the air. A few items describe the mechanism in narrower terms (sulfur-bearing air, specific compounds).
