Answer:
When you see that green layer on these metals (usually called patina or verdigris) it's because of a chemical reaction. The copper has reacted with oxygen, water, and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Brass is an alloy that's usually made up of 67% copper and 33% zinc.

Explanation:
The answer is pretty interesting. Why do brass, bronze and copper turn green? All of these metals contain copper. When copper reacts with oxygen, it oxidizes and generates a greenish-blue layer that protects the metal from further corrosion.
