Looks like it. copper nitrate formed and hydrogen gas just released.

copper sulfate and nitric acid
Reduction-Oxidization (Redox) reaction
Yes. Dissolution of a copper penny would indeed be a chemical reaction.
in study island, the answer is "The reaction between the copper and the nitric acid produces heat. It is exothermic."

Copper(II) Oxide: CuO reaction with Nitric Acid: CuO + 2 HNO3 => Cu(NO3)2 + H2O Copper(I) Oxide: Cu2O reaction with Ntric Acid: Cu2O + 2HNO3 => CuNO3 + H2O
The reaction of copper pennies (pre 1983) is a very intense exothermic reaction. The copper is oxidized by the acid.
Any reaction between nitric acid and ammonium nitrate.
Pieces of copper are added to hot concentrated solutions of hydrochloric, phosphoric, sulfuric and nitric acids. A reaction clearly takes place between copper and nitric acid. The presence of copper ions can be observed by adding each solution to a dilute solution of ammonia. If copper ions were present, we would see the blue color of the copper-ammonia complex. Sulfuric acid has oxidized the copper metal, as indicated by the blue color. Nitric acid is a stronger oxidizing agent (and produces a higher concentration of copper(II) ions), as indicated by the darker blue color.
