Tarnished silver contains Ag2S. Can this tarnish be removed by placing the tarnished ware in an aluminium pan containing an inert electrolyte solution such as NaCl ? Given that the standard reduction potentials for the half reactions are :
`Ag2S(s)+2e^(-)to2Ag(s),+S^(2)(aq), E^(@)=-0.71" V"`.
`Al^(3+)(aq)+3e^(-) to Al(s), E^(@)=-1.66" V"`.
