The student hypothesized that zinc would dissolve most in vinegar because zinc is the softest metal and vinegar is the most acidic liquid. They tested zinc, silver, brass and a quarter in vinegar, baking soda, Coke and saltwater over 5 and 10 days. The results showed that zinc dissolved and decreased in size the most in vinegar, while baking soda and Coke had little effect on the metals, demonstrating that vinegar is the most corrosive due to its acidity.

What metal will dissolve first
The document describes an experiment testing which metal would dissolve fastest in different liquids. The hypothesis was that zinc would dissolve most in vinegar due to zinc being the softest metal and vinegar being the most acidic liquid. After 5 and 10 days, zinc had dissolved the most in vinegar, turning pink and reducing in size. Vinegar also corroded the other metals, while saltwater corroded them but not as much as vinegar. Baking soda and Coke had little effect. The experiment proved vinegar is the most acidic and corrodes metals the most.

investigation project of chemistry on metal coupling
This document summarizes a student's investigatory project on the effect of metal coupling on rusting of iron. The student coupled iron nails with zinc, magnesium, copper, and no metal as a control. They observed that coupling iron with the more electropositive metals zinc and magnesium prevented rusting, as seen by the formation of blue patches around the nails. Coupling iron with the less electropositive copper facilitated rusting, as seen by the formation of pink patches. The student concluded that coupling iron with more electropositive metals resists corrosion and rusting, while coupling with less electropositive metals increases rusting.

PPT.pdf
This document provides information about the physical and chemical properties of metals and non-metals. It discusses how metals are lustrous and good conductors of heat and electricity, while non-metals are generally dull, soft, and poor conductors. It describes how metals react with acids to produce hydrogen gas, while non-metals typically do not react. Examples of displacement reactions are provided. Common uses of metals and non-metals are outlined.
Metal relationship
The document discusses the relationship between a metal's reactivity and when it was discovered. It analyzes metals discovered at different points in history and finds that generally, less reactive metals like gold were discovered earlier since they occur freely in nature, while more reactive metals discovered later once technology advanced to extract them from ores. There is not always a direct correlation, as in the case of copper being discovered before silver, but the pattern typically holds except over very short periods. The conclusion is that less reactive metals were discovered earlier due to being more easily accessible.

Metals react with oxygen, water, and acids to form metal oxides, hydroxides, or salts. They lose electrons and become positively charged ions. Non-metals react with oxygen to form non-metal oxides, generally do not react with water or acids, and gain electrons to become negatively charged ions. Corrosion occurs as metals react with substances like oxygen and water, forming coatings like rust. Corrosion can be prevented by applying protective coatings like oil, paint, zinc plating, or by alloying metals.
