not if you just soak it in but you can put this washing up liquid on it (I'm not sure which brand it was) I know this works because I did it on a filthy roman coin I found buried in the garden
Nope. Stick a penny in some coke or pepsi (Coke preferred) and wait like an hour or two (im not sure maybe a day if you don't see any progress) and voila! A really clean penny.
yup! :)
You could also try using lemon juice and salt, ketchup or vinegar too. they can all clean a penny! :P
Because of the chemicals in Sprite, they're is a chemical called citric acid in sprite, that allows it to clean, like regular acid, allows you to melt...
I think only Coke does.
Because acids can make u die so when ur triung to clean a penny u don't want to die so that's y u use it to clean pennies
There are 45mg of sodium in an 8 oz serving of Sprite.
It is a mixture because the CO2 isn't chemically combined to the sugar.
I have a penny beside me soaking in Hydrogen Peroxide. after about half an hour it gained some small bubbles all over the penny, you would think being copper the penny would oxidize and turn green. This does not appear to be happening yet, however, it may be that the penny has an oxide protection covering it - either that or it would take more time.Why not try it your self and see?Hydrogen Peroxide is available at nearly every grocery store and I am sure you have a penny or two laying around.
Yes, It contains IODINE
can gatorade clean a old penny
Because its acids clean the penny
coke cleans penny better
neither. the best way to clean a penny is by using some lemon juice and salt this is correct because i tried it
the bubbles form
yes because all of the chemicals in the sodas can make a compound to clean the dirty penny!
vinegar is the best way to clean a penny out of the choices given.
That sounds like a good science experiment. Nobody has really studied how sodas clean things, so you should get 3 glasses and put Sprite in one and Coke in another and plain water in the last one. Drop a penny into each glass and measure how clean it gets after each day until one penny is totally clean.
soda will actually kill the penny till it looks like jo mama in about 24 hours....diet coke, sprite, and 7up clean them the best
No, I'm afraid not.
it splashes
Sprite contains citric acid, which is a weak acid that can help to dissolve and remove stains from metal surfaces. When a penny is soaked in Sprite, the citric acid can react with the dirt and oxidation on the surface of the penny, making it appear cleaner. However, it is worth noting that using a mild household acid like citric acid is generally safer than using harsh chemical cleaners for cleaning pennies.
