Brass gets discolored in 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 which has a colour very light and the mixture is non-temperature (hot and cold type of temperature) so it gets discoloured.

Hydrogen sulphide is a heavy gas, it has property to react with metals like copper, bronze, steel etc. At some conditions (temperature, moisture) brass is a metal (alloy) made of copper and zinc. These two metals are mixed in different proportions. Copper reacts with hydrogen sulphide which makes it corrosive.

It's B because there have been chemical reactions towards the two objects which makes it a mixture.
