Answer:
Probably the answer can be ..
A green layer forms on the surface of a copper vessel when it is exposed to damp air for an extended period of time. Copper corrodes through oxidation, which occurs when it combines with oxygen in the air to form oxide. Copper carbonate is formed when oxide reacts with CO2, giving it a green tint.
When copper is exposed to air, it creates a green deposit on its surface that is often a mix of copper carbonate and copper hydroxide.
