Will the ketchup burn when it is in the oven?

All the water in it will evaporate until it is very thick, and that will burn to a crisp.

What is the difference between brass plating and real brass?

Brass plating is typically covered in a thin layer of real brass, which can erode the plating and reveal the metal underneath. Real brass is solid all the way through.
