Answer:
This is because silver reacts with sulphur in the air to form a coating of silver sulphide. ... Thus air in the vicinity of a petroleum refinery has a higher concentration of sulphur than other places. This is why silver is more likely to get tarnished near a petroleum refinery than in a place far away.
Hope it helps you.
