Is this balanced properly
2H2O2----> 2H2O +O2
Thank you for the reactions of zinc and acetic acid. REAL QUESTION, if I was to rub all the copper off of a new penny down to the zinc, what would be the appearance of the zinc if I left it in vinegar (acetic acid ) for 30min.
I can't rub off enough copper, and I can only see the green from the copper reacting to the vinegar,
Thank you again

The green color comes from the Cu; therefore, if there is no Cu and only Zn, there will be color because Zn(C2H3O2) is not colored.
