A reddish Brown metal is Copper(Cu)
1⃣When Cu is passed through the open, it changes into CuO (black)
2Cu+O2=======> 2CuO
1⃣when hydrogen is passed through it, it regains Cu..
2CuO+H2======> 2Cu+H2O
hope it helps

The reddish brown metal is copper.
When heated in air
2Cu + O2 ⇒ 2Cuo
We get copper oxide which is black in colour.
When hydrogen gas is passed over copper oxide,
Cuo + H2 ⇒ Cu + H20
Cuo gets reduced to copper while hydrogen gas gets oxidised to water.
