What happen when zinc and copper in salt water?
they will corrode
Why do copper pipes carry hot water corrode faster than pipes that carry cold water?
Heat speeds up chemical reactions. As corrosion is a chemical reaction, copper pipes at a higher temperature will corrode faster
Why do metals corrode?
because we keep metal next to chemicals that corrode them. Metals like iron naturally corrode in water. Other metals can be made to corrode using chemicals.
Will sulfuric acid corrode copper?
Sorry, copper does not react with sulphuric acid because it is not reactive enough to do so. Only metals which are higher than hydrogen in the reactivity series will react with sulphuric acid.
Do coins corrode?
Of course coins corrode. Over time coins corrode. They corrode faster in tap water. Bleach also corrodes coins. If you have time, try some experiments and see what substances corrode coins.

Why is copper used for water pipes?
Copper is used as hot water pipes because the copper will not corrode when the hot water goes through the pipes

Does water affect pennies?
As pennies are not made of iron, they cannot rust under any circumstances.However they can corrode. The copper shell will produce a green corrosion product, the zinc core can corrode completely away as a transparent water soluble corrosion product. This corrosion will be very slow in plain water (much slower than iron rusts in water) but will be much faster if an acid is added to the water.
What would happen if copper metal was added to water?
when copper is put with water it turns green like the statue of liberty it is actually a browny bronze colour but when water and other chemicals react with it, it chages colour to a green colour
Will treated water from reverse osmosis process corrode copper tubing?
The problem of pinholes developing in copper pipe has been associated with the drawing lubricants, and also in water that is close to neutral PH. I cannot give you a reference - sorry.
How do you check freon pressure on central ac?
with a set of freon guages. The smaller copper pipe should be warm to hot. The larger copper pipe should be cold and in hot humid weather dripping water from condensation. what should the guages read.

Do acids corrode metals?
Yes. Some can only corrode soft things, and some can corrode everything. But in short, all acids can corrode something. It only gets dangerous if the acid can corrode you.
