Because all other options are gas only.

Because Hydrogen Sulphide is an acid. As because of acid it reacts with brass and discolored the brass.

I actually think its A because oxygen usually causes things to rust l8k at the places with a lot of oxygen in the atmosphere.

Oxygen can also do this process, but in slowly and in low quantity.

Ismail said:   9 years ago
Its because of the reaction between brass and hydrogen sulphyde. It will be discolour the brass.

@Ismail.

You are right because hydrogen also mixed oxygen and carbon dioxide so hydrogen peroxide.

Because hydrogen sulphaide is an acid.

Hydro sulphide is a colourless gas when mixed with others.

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.
