ANTACIDS- Classification and Mechanism of Action INTRODUCTION Antacids are defined as a substance‚ generally a base‚ which counteracts stomach acidity. The name antacid means anti-acid (against acid). Antacids are the primary treatment for ailments such as gastric reflux‚ gastritis‚ upset stomach and heartburn. Hydrochloric acid is secreted by the stomach to kill harmful organisms‚ aid digestion and activate digestive enzymes. Excess secretion of acid into stomach or impaired resistance by

acid and baking soda. Eighth graders have to find out what a mystery mix is from an assortment of chemicals‚ by adding water and mixing them together. Some think it is citric acid and baking soda‚ and some still think it’s citric acid‚ baking soda‚ and Epsom salts. Then they looked at the mix dry and it looked too rectangle and rocky‚ then what the mystery mixture seemed to be. Citric acid is more circular than Epsom salt. But other people thought it was Epsom salt‚ and the baking soda covered the

Experiment 1: Observations of Chemical Changes Purpose: To observe the macroscopic changes that occur in chemical reactions and attempt to interpret the microscopic changes of the atoms and molecules that allow for the macroscopic changes to happen; and to associate these chemical properties with household products. Also‚ it is to learn the importance of how to separate mixtures into their component substances by solubility. Procedure: Before starting with the official experiment‚ it was important

Lastly we will explain what chemical bonds are formed and or broken when lemon juice and backing soda. Observations of the Reactants When most people hear baking soda they think of the bright orange box sitting in their pantry or refrigerator soaking up the foul odors that have come about from the onions or fish. Some may think of pancakes or baking a cake. Baking powder is a fine

Reliance Baking Soda was discovered by James Stewart Augusta in 1915. He called it the “miracle compound.” It was founded to serve as a leavening agent in baked goods to let them rise properly. With the invent of self-rising flour and instant cake mixes‚ baking soda’s original use importance declined. With this decline‚ Stewart Corporation started promoting baking soda for a myriad of other uses‚ which include household cleaner‚ laundry aid‚ and deodorizer. Reliance baking soda holds a 70%
