Answer 2

A mineral is tarnished or oxidized but does not affect its color- False

Tarnish of minerals:

• As a result of mineral alteration, for example, when exposed to oxygen, a thin film is formed on the surface of the grains, causing tarnish to appear.
• It leads to a change of color of the mineral.

Examples of oxidation of minerals:

1. Copper turns green in colour when tarnished or oxidised.
2. Silver when tarnished turns black, yellow or many times brown in colour.

Hence, the statement mineral is tarnished or oxidized but does not affect its color is False.
