You will have a mixture of zinc and iron filings.
You would die.
no becauswe the aluminum is more reactive than the zinc.
The Zinc will displace the copper. It will become Zinc Sulphate. The word equation will be Zinc + Copper Sulphate -----> Copper + Zinc Sulphate. Hope this helps!
When zinc gets warm, thermal energy is released. This happens as the kinetic energy of the zinc atoms increases, causing them to vibrate more rapidly and emit heat energy to the surroundings.
The zinc coating no longer protects the underlying metal from rusting, once water and air gets through the crack.
the hydrogen's chlorine will be transferred to zinc forming a bubbles
Zinc can react with oxygen and water to form zinc oxide and hydrogen gas. The zinc oxide may further react with water to form zinc hydroxide. In the presence of enough oxygen and water, zinc can eventually corrode and form a layer of zinc oxide or zinc hydroxide on its surface.
Mostly zinc, with a little copper.

Nothing. Zinc is more reactive than copper, and zinc has already undergone oxidation to become an ion (remember, zinc nitrate is soluble.) So the copper will just sit there because it's not reactive enough to do anything.
It is unlikely for zinc to spontaneously catch fire or explode under normal conditions. Additionally, it is unlikely for zinc to react violently with water or oxygen.
