The zinc within a copper-plated penny will dissolve in hydrochloricacid if the copper coating is filed down in several spots (so thatthe hydrochloric acid can get to the zinc). The reaction betweenthe acid and the zinc is:
Zn (s) + 2 HCl (aq) ZnCl2 (aq) + H2 (g)
When the zinc in a certain penny dissolves, the total volume of gascollected over water at 25.0
