Answer:

Yes, it is correct that we should not kept curd and sour substances in brass and copper vessels.

Explanation:

We should not kept curd and sour substances in brass and copper vessels. It is because when we keep the sour substances and curd in copper vessels. As we know that curd and sour substances are acidic in nature that means it contains acid. Just like in curd lactic acid is found it is because when milk comes in contact with lactobacillus bacteria, the lactobacillus bacteria converts the milk into lactic acid which is an organic acid. So, when this curd (lactic acid) comes in contact with the copper vessels. Lactic acid reacts with copper to form a Copper Lactate Salt which very harmful for our health. It is very poisonous or noxicous in nature which harms our body or health. Just like if you keep lemon juice in copper vessels. As we know that lemon juice contains citric acid which is an organic acid. When this lemon juice (citric acid) comes in contact with the copper vessels. Citric acid reacts with copper to form a Copper Citrate Salt which very harmful for our health. It is also very poisonous or noxicous in nature which harms our body or health.
