Q. Why is zinc mixed with copper?
In a zinc-copper voltaic cell, it is the copper(II) ions that will be reduced to copper metal. That is because the Cu 2+ ions have a greater attraction for electrons than the Zn 2+ ions in the other half-cell. Instead, the zinc metal is oxidized.
Q. What happens when you mix copper and zinc?
