      Yes. The joke was about the condition it was in.
      Also, it was Tiffany and Co. who started stamping 925 on silver, which became the standard.

      Hard to say, I wasn't concerned with damaging this ring. It might be risky. If the ring is important to you, take it to a jeweller for cleaning.

    • @KenLord
      @KenLord  6 месяцев назад +1

      That's interesting, because this method actually causes a chemical reaction that removes the sulphur from the silver sulphide tarnish. Gold isn't reactive and doesn't tarnish.

    • @KenLord
      @KenLord  6 месяцев назад +1

      @@reo-julie8865 ultrasound gets the dirt off ... but silver tarnish is from a chemical reaction, silver sulphide bonded to the surface. You can either polish it off, which takes away some silver, or you can try to reverse the chemical reaction. That's what is happening in the glass with boiling water, aluminum foil, baking soda, and vinegar.
      If its important or valuable jewelry, get a jeweller to clean it. Or use a silver polish. If its junky jewelry that doesnt matter, try the chemical reaction.

    Why the aluminium foil, baking soda and salt? Someone pls explain the chemistry behind it.

    • @KenLord
      @KenLord  7 месяцев назад

      You'll have to Google it. But it has to do with converting the silver sulphide tarnish back into silver metal. The Aluminum picks up the Sulphur. The baking soda, vinegar, and salt facilitate the transfer.

  • @lil_wildboar

    When using baking soda and hot water you also need to like the bowl with aluminum foil right?

    • @KenLord
      @KenLord  6 месяцев назад

      That's right, boiling water, aluminum foil, baking soda, vinegar, and a bit of salt. I'd suggest googling instructions for this, for the amounts etc.

    It might not have been that old. Being in the ocean may tarnish it very well. Probably could get that way within 5-10 years just as much.

    Is it true Boiling water in a bowl with aluminum foil inside and baking soda actually removes tarnish on silver

    • @KenLord
      @KenLord  10 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, but dont forget the salt too. it reverses the chemical reaction where Sulphur reacts with the silver making the tarnish. Pulls the sulphur back out. But don't expect the surface to got back to its original quality.

      thanks, i'm no chemist, but silver tarnish is silver sulphide. Aluminum is more reactive, so it provides a destination for the sulphur when its released from the silver.

    How you found it if silver is not magnetic

    • @KenLord
      @KenLord  11 месяцев назад +1

      Metal detectors don't work based on the metal being magnetic. The detector creates an electromagnetic field that induces eddy currents in the metal target, which create their own electromagnetic fields which are picked up by the detector.
      Gold and copper aren't magnetic either, but are also easily detected.
