Answer:
Explanation:
Rusting of iron refers to the formation of rust, a mixture of iron oxides, on the surface of iron objects or structures. This rust is formed from a redox reaction between oxygen and iron in an environment containing water (such as air containing high levels of moisture)

In the case of everyday copper utensils, copper is most likely to form a brown or black tarnish in the presence of oxygen, moisture, human touch, dust, and certain chemicals. This tarnishing can further develop, leading to corrosion (or patina), which is usually green.
