Question

y do gold and silver not corrode?

Answer 1

Gold and silver are unreactive metals. They don't react with any other element. Even if they react , the process is very very slow like gold acquiring dull appearance by being kept in the open

Answer 2

$\large\boxed{\fcolorbox{blue}{yellow} {Answer}}$

Gold ornaments do not get corroded.

$\bold{\boxed{Reasons}}$

1. Gold is a nobel metal. There is no effect of moist air or action of acid on it at any temperature.

2. Pure gold is a very soft metal, it breaks and gets bent easily. Hence, in gold ornaments, gold is alloyed with other metals like copper or silver in appropriate proportion to make it hard and resistant to corrosion.

Hence, gold ornaments do not get corroded.
