  • isn't that called electroplating?

  • Lol, he gives us the answer in the title.

  • @liplokker right! meaning the penny is taking the oxygen from the water. Releasing hydrogen.

  •  it is making a small battery

  • weird, I was talking with my wife about this about 2 hours ago...

  • hmm I dont have any explanation so lets just say it was God....lol..there cupper coating on the new coin

  • it's not electrolysis. Acetic acid -vinegar- is corrosive to metals including iron, magnesium, and zinc, forming hydrogen gas and metal salts called acetates.

    Zn + 2 HCl > ZnCl2 + H2

  • its oxidiesing

  • Its Corroding.. right? The Vinegar and Salt creates a solution that is corrosive?
