Solution

The correct option is A Cu2S(s) and Cu2O(s)
Blast of air converts Cu2S partly into Cu2O which reacts with remaining Cu2S to give molten copper. The copper so obtained is called "Blister copper" because, as it solidifies, SO2 hidden in it escapes out producing blister on its surface
option A is correct
