Vinegar can destroy almost anything within a certain time frame, to destroy a penny it will take up to a few milliseconds
If you put a penny in distilled water, the water will not react with the copper surface of the penny. However, over time, the penny may develop a greenish-blue patina due to oxidation from exposure to oxygen in the air. This process is slow in distilled water compared to other liquids like vinegar or saltwater.
The acid in taco sauce, such as vinegar, can react with the oxidized layer on the penny (copper oxide) and dissolve it, revealing the shiny copper surface underneath. This chemical reaction helps to clean the penny and restore its luster.
A nail would likely disintegrate the fastest in vinegar due to its iron composition, which reacts more readily with the acetic acid in vinegar. Pennies made of copper or zinc and spoons made of stainless steel would likely exhibit slower rates of disintegration in vinegar.
