No, brass is not used to can foods. Brass utensils, pots, and pans will result in dark or discolored pickles and should not be eaten.
Figuratively or literally? 1) Brass is a metal alloy which is useful for some things, and it is the preferred material for ammunition cartridges. Other metals can be used, but they do not work as well as brass. Brass is also used for sculpture, but it is heavy and brittle compared to most metals, and it is not suitable for any application. 2) Brass itself does not have an offensive smell, but brass cleaners used to removed tarnish from the brass are pungent, and they may leave the brass with their smell.
Brass ornaments could be used in a variety of ways. They could be used as the decorations on Christmas tress, or they can be worn as custom jeweleries.
Solder can be used on any grade of brass or copper.
copper
Yes
Not a mineral but a metal- copper.
As many metals as you can imagine. Gold, silver, platinum, copper, brass, steel, and many, many others were used.
There are a great many applications for alloys apart from jewelry. As an example - bronze and brass are alloys that are used to make parts for many machines. Stainless steel is an alloy that seems to be ubiquitous.
saliva is actually the best cleaning tool for bronze. :D
Nope....Gold layered jewelry (also called "gold plated" jewelry) is the type where a base metal such as copper or brass is coated with a layer of gold, hence the term "gold-layered". On the other hand, gold-filled jewelry is where solid gold is filled with other metals like copper and brass. The fusion, which is made from heat and pressure, is permanent.

Having worked in Jewelry factories..the main component metal is copper of which silver is plated onto it. Other metals are white metal or brass. Sometimes nickel. Nickel silver is plated on white metal and gold plate on brass or copper mixed alloys.
Depending on the type of jewelry you are referring to, it can be brass with copper and zinc, stainless steel with chromium, and silver with copper. Lead and cadmium are usually found in some cheap costume jewelry but these materials are known to cause cancer and other health issues. http://www.jgoodin.com/Home/Support/KnowledgeBase/BaseMetals.aspx
Stainless steel would be better since it is hypo allergenic. Brass tends to turn skin that comes into contact with it green.
