Yes and it also makes it shinier because of all the chemicals inside of bleach and the same way bleach can whiten your clothes it can also clean the rust off of your nails and rusty of pennies.
Pennies don't rust. Rust technically speaking is iron oxide and pennies have little to no iron. They do however oxidize, tuning them green from the copper which makes up most of the metal they are made from.
Copper and zinc-plated pennies do not rust, because they're not made of iron. The only American pennies that could rust were the steel cents struck in 1943. You might believe that a penny is rusting but instead it is corroding! Yes, it does not rust it just corrodes.
Most sodas have a chemical that corrodes very reactive objects. A penny is now made from zinc which is highly reactive to soda... try this, put a tooth in coke can overnight andsee what happens
They're made of copper (before 1982) or copper-plated zinc (after 1982). Both are non-ferrous metals and so they don't rust. However, in 1943 the Mint made cents out of steel because copper was needed for the war effort. These cents did rust, which is why it's hard to find them in decent condition today.
pennies don't rust!
Tarnish.

Pennies do not rust because they are made of copper-plated zinc. However, the copper plating can react with certain acids and chemicals, causing them to tarnish or develop a patina over time. This is different from rust, which is the result of iron or steel reacting with oxygen and water.

the acid eats away the rust
Pennies are made of copper and don't rust unless they are the zinc pennies issued in 1942 and 1943. However, zinc will not rust either. The so-called steel pennies minted during World War II were made of steel and coated with zinc. If the penny becomes damaged or if the zinc coating is compromised, the underlying steel will rust if exposed to the proper elements. Pennies do corrode though.
A mixture of water, vinegar, and bleach is corrosive to most metals. If pennies are placed in it, the copper will oxidize. Rusting is a term only applying to the oxidization of iron, not other metals. The pennies will look a lot cleaner and the liquid will turn blue. If you leave the pennies in the mixture too long, holes may start to form in them.
No, pennies do not rust in the traditional sense because they are primarily made of copper and zinc, which do not rust like iron. However, they can tarnish or corrode over time due to exposure to moisture and air, leading to a greenish patina known as copper carbonate. The extent of this corrosion can vary depending on environmental conditions.
Most likely either Coke or Pepsi .
