It is because the presence of mixture of hydrogen and sulphide and brass is a type of thing which has a color very light and mixture is non temperature (hot and cold type of temperature) so it gets discolored.

Brass gets discolored in the air because of the presence of Hydrogen sulphide. It is because the presence of a mixture of hydrogen and sulphide and brass is a type of thing that has a color very light and the mixture is non-temperature (hot and cold type of temperature) so it gets discolored.

Brass is the alloy of Copper & Zinc.

Brass reacting with Hydrogen Sulphate present in the atmosphere it forms Zinc Sulphate.

Because H2S is more reactive.

Because H2S is a bleaching agent.

Yes, H2S is the correct one because sulphide gas is poisonous and if it is combine with H it becomes poisonous acid so it makes brass discoloured.

Brass is a type of alloy which is made with Cu and Zn. H2S gas react with Cu will give CuS precipitate which is yellow colour.
