Digest (dissolve) a small portion of the brass in nitric acid. Then test the sample for copper content using an atomic emission or atomic absorption spectrometer.
Solder can be used on any grade of brass or copper.
The main alloys of copper are Brass (with zinc) and Bronze (with tin).
Because if you join copper (the pipe) directly into steel (the radiator) the electrolytic difference is so great they would corrode very quickly. By using brass between them you reove this risk.
I've searched for couple of weeks but I couldn't find any thing the only way is using atomic absorption spectroscopy
well they are all metal what you think. but if you take 13.6x2 and divide by the 4 chemical compounds of the periotic table by using newton's first law take the mass of the object and find the density of the water and make a hypothesis of where the alloys fall on the table. than you will find in copper, brass, aluminum, lead, tin, zinc, and bronze are alloys. repeat process if not working.

how do you determine degree of deacetylation of chitosan using UV -vis spectrophotometer
Yes! The best copper-to-galvanized connection is made using a brass nipple in between the two dissimilar metals. The nipple should be a minimum of 2 1/2" long (preferably six inches long). Bronze is an alloy (copper + tin). Brass is an alloy (copper + zinc).
we are one of the largest manufactuer of copper and brass pipes, some of our copper pipes for medical gas using. tang@hailiang.com
Brass is an alloy of the elements copper and zinc. Alloys do not appear on the periodic table. Copper is an element with the symbol Cu and zinc is an element with the symbol Zn. They both appear on the periodic table.
A copper sheet coated with mercury is used to capture very fine gold dust, as at a beach shore. But I know of no such use using brass.
I would recommend against it as it is illegal, but you would need zinc and heat to turn a copper penny to brass.
spectrophotometer or laser spectroscope
You do not mention what you are using as the anode and cathode, but i would assume that given the green colour you are using copper or brass perhaps as the anode, and it is breaking down into a copper carbonate(which is green). By applying electrical current to the circuit you are speeding up the conversion of copper to copper carbonate(or similar).

*Yes you can solder brass, as long as it isn't the decorative polished brass. They have used brass fittings in plumbing for years and years. It has the same characteristics as copper.
