I saw this cleaning guide, which says that a good way to clean silver is to put it in a bucket with baking soda, aluminum foil, and warm water.

Do any of you chemistry geniuses know what kind of reaction this is? I was thinking it might be electrochemical, but now that I think about it, the baking soda is throwing me off.
BTW I was a biochemistry major in college and took 3 years of chemistry, but this is out of my league.
