Penny Lab

In chemistry we did a penny lab. The penny lab we did was very fun we tried to make the copper penny into gold. First of all we placed the penny in a cup full of Zn+NaOH. Which when we took it out the penny was gray. Then we heated the penny with the fire where it then turned to a shiny gold color.It was the goldest penny I have ever seen. Call me the alchemist but im just in chemistry class.
