Where in fact it can dissolve metal zinc?
Zinc is a relatively reactive metal and is seldom found as a native metal. Commonly zinc is used alloyed with copper to make brass, and thus produce a cheaper metal which still has fair corrosion resistance. A wide variety of brasses exist, each with their particular application. However it is attacked by waters neutral or only slightly acid, and de-zincification of brass is a problem. In these conditions, your water will contain tiny quantities of copper. [For this reason, you should not take your water for cooking or eating from the hot tap.] Zinc does corrode, and is commonly used as a protective coating for steel structures. Even when the zinc coating is scratched through, the electro-negativity of the zinc still protects the revealed steel. In a similar fashion, slabs of zinc are used as sacrificial anodes for protecting buried steel pipelines, and for ship hulls. [As a footnote, zinc is an essential element for human development, particularly children.]

When zinc rod is dipped in zinc sulphate sol then concentration of solution after time will be?
The concentration of the zinc sulphate solution will not change when a zinc rod is dipped into it. This is because zinc is already present in the solution as zinc ions, so the addition of a zinc rod will not alter the concentration of zinc ions in the solution.
What would happen if a zinc coated nail became scratched?
All zinc nails rust over a long period of time. One that has been scratched will rust sooner. You could touch over with a zinc paint. I would need to know more. I cant see any problems.
How do you prevent corrosion of metals due to salty weather?
The metal can be painted with a protective layer or electroplated. Galvanization involving the use of a sacrificial and more reactive metal can also be applied, e.g. coating iron with zinc. Zinc by itself does not rust, and even if the zinc layer is scratched such that iron is exposed, iron will not rust as it is sacrificially protected by the zinc against corrosion.
Why does a zinc penny not react in hydrochloric acid?
The zinc in the core of the penny will react in a single replacement reaction with the hcl while the copper will not theoretically react and will be left behind. So if you soak a penny, with cuts in it for the hcl to reach the zinc, will leave behind a copper shell. -may not be 100%correct as i am not an expert just taking high school chem.
