chemical, e.g. if you have silver, and it tarnishes, the dark spots (the tarnished areas) are actually silver oxide. If it were a physical change, the silver would need to change states of matter. Into gas, liquid or plasma

Yes, tarnishing is a physical change. It is a surface reaction that alters the appearance of a material without changing its chemical composition.
