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.

Does water affect rocks?
definatley if it is acidic water, but for normal water/rain im not sure
If water splashes out of a graduated cylinder during a measurement of the volume of pennies Will it affect the results?
Measuring the volume of pennies by their displacement requires that only water actually displaced by the pennies is measured. Unless the water was at the very top of the cylinder both before and after the pennies are added, splashed water will make the measurement invalid.Because surface tension forms a curved surface at the top of the water, it is advisable to have the cylinder only partly filled, and measure the level at the same part of the curved water surface both before and after the pennies are added. This will improve the accuracy of measurement.
When 12 copper pennies are submerged in water the pennies displace 4.13 cm3 of water If the combined mass of the pennies is 36.93 g what is the density of copper?
You cant't figure this out using copper pennies. Pennies are not 100% copper.
How many pennies have the same mass as 6 liters of water?
480 pennies
Does water have the acid that cleans pennies in it?
No, water is neutral. It has no acid in it whatsoever.
Why are some pennies orange?
i think its something like the iron molocules in the air affect the copper in the pennies when the penny is exposed to air for a VERY long time

How many pennies would fit in a 3 gallon water jug?
Approximately 7,500 pennies could fit in a three gallon jug.
does a coin sink or float?
The reason the pennies sink in water is because of an idea called density. The pennies have more density than the water, and so the pennies sink. Anything with more density than water will sink in water, but other objects that have less density than water will float.
