I think the correct answer is carbon-di-oxide.

If option "b" (Hydrogen Sulphide) is the correct one then please can anybody tell me that, is hydrogen sulphide is present in the air? I think it is not and the correct answer is Co2.

Malaisha said:   9 years ago
No, the correct answer is option A.

Hina shafiq said:   9 years ago
Yeah, option "b" is correct because brass is a metal and hydrogen sulphide reacts rapidly with metal.

Vinu said:   9 years ago
Can't understand. What's the correct answer.

Remo said:   9 years ago
I think option B is correct because brass is an alloy made of copper and zinc; the proportion of zinc and copper can be varied to create a range of brasses with varying properties.

Guys, If it would have been Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide or Nitrogen then you would easily notice the colour change in your brass utensils. That is common sense, also hydrogen sulphide reacts easily with metals like Brass.
