No, pennies minted before 1982 are made of 95% copper and 5% zinc, which do not rust like iron or steel. However, over time, they may develop a patina or change color due to oxidation.
Yes water makes a penny rust faster in water because the particles are nore affective and the coke does not have near as many particles as water well good luck with the expirementing that project!!!!!!!!
Technically it does not rust, as that phenomenon only occurs with iron. In a moist environment, carbon dioxide and oxygen will react with the copper surface of a penny to form copper I carbonate.
Leave it in salt water overnight and it will start to rust. Copper rusts a green color. You can accelerate the action with a little bleach if you really want it to rust quickly.
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
rust no. Well maybe a 1943 steel penny.
