As I was going through HS chem lab in hopes to get more used to studying experiments, I came across the famous gold penny experiment using zinc and copper to make brass alloy. In this experiment, I know that zinc gets reduced, but is the copper being oxidized?
And is the heating of "silver" looking penny to "gold" penny a redox reaction?
