The air has carbon dioxide in it, & it turns the apple if it's left out too long.

I think it is the oxygen in the air that oxidizes the apple.

The oxidation reaction basically forms a sort of rust on the surface of the fruit. You see the browning when the fruit is cut or bruised because these actions damage the cells in the fruit, allowing oxygen in the air to react with enzymes and other chemicals.
