It goes without saying that the Trumpet is a brass instrument, though what each of its parts is made of is more complicated. Most of the instrument is, as its name implies, made of brass - though, some of the instrument has copper in it, and some of the brass can be coated with other metals. Some instruments also have a layer of lacquer on them.
The most common mixture of "yellow brass" used for trumpets is 70% copper and 30% zinc. 80/20 mixes and copper/nickel/zinc ("silver brass") mixes are also common.
All of the finishes do affect the sound quality
Another variation between trumpets is the size of the cylindrical bore. The bore is the hole that runs from the mouthpiece to the bell, down which air is blown. Different sizes of bore have a big effect on the sound the instrument makes, and how much air has to be blown down it

They're not really different. They are just made of different materials. They make the same sound.

It's a matter of opinion, but some people say different metals make the trumpet have a different tone and some say it doesn't.
