Inquisitive Stone Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 Apparently nothing happens, why would anything? Copper is less reactive than Sodium which is in sodium chloride, so it won't displace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Skeptic Posted December 9, 2010 Share Posted December 9, 2010 If I remember right, copper dissolves slowly in seawater. (this had a replacement cost for the old boats but was worth it because it also prevented organisms from growing on the boat). However, I doubt you'd notice anything in a few days.
