Does Hot Water Dissolve Faster
The hot water will help the tablets dissolve faster. This is because the water particles are moving faster. A chemical reaction only occurs when particles hit each other, therefore with the hot particles vibrating around faster, you will speed up the number of times they hit each other, which speeds up the reaction

    The Expirement that the chemist will be conducting includes the following materials: hot water, room tepmerature water, cold water, and regular Alka Seltzer tablets. Research on Alka Seltzer in previous expirements shows that it dissolves faster in hotter temperatures of water. It also shows in previous expirements that Alka Seltzer dissolves slower in colder temperatures of water rather than hotter temoeratures. Alka Seltzer is an antacid that contains aspirin. It is made in tablets that dissolve in water to give a fizzy reaction.…

    The law of conservation of mass states that matter can be neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction, so when the tablet dissolved into the water the tablets turned from a solid into a liquid while mixing in with the water and releasing carbon dioxide. The tablets took a while to dissolve as the tablet had sodium in it, which when placed in water the dissolving of the tablet causes a strong exothermic reaction as the sodium responds with water and released carbon…

    The only difference between the two is that water only had gelatin in it and cold water had gelatin and fresh pineapple juice in it. After two minutes the water that only contained gelatin in it solidify. Cold water that contain gelatin and fresh pineapple juice solidifies after 15 minutes, however, there were liquid on the top. Maybe if the cold water tube stayed in the ice water for a little longer the gelatin would have completely solidify. Hot water contain gelatin and fresh pineapple juice. The table 2 shows that after 15 minutes gelatin was solidified with a small portion of gelatin in it. Before the gelatin was added the tube that was labeled hot water was heated to 70°C for five minutes. With the pineapple juice in heat it cause the enzyme to denature the function of the enzyme cease. If the fresh pineapple juice was not heated the gelatin would have not solidified. Although the hot water tube solidify it was not completely solidified because there were still substances on the top. Maybe if the hot water tube was left longer in the ice it would have completely…

    In this lab, the results did not formulate as what was supposed to happen. Theoretically, the tap water would work the fastest because there was no environmental factors affecting the outcome. As the temperature of the hydrochloric acid was raised, the enzyme’s speed should have slowed. In the results, the ice water worked the fastest and the 50° of HCL was the slowest. But the result of the 38°C was off by at least 90 ml/min in comparison to the tap water when it was supposed to work slower.…

    When researching similar projects the scientists found a project where they tested the effect of three different temperatures of water on Alka-Seltzer tablets. In the experiment they first tested how long an Alka-Seltzer tablet would dissolve in cold water ( 9 degrees) then repeated it two more times in order to calculate a mean. Then using a hot plate to heat the water, they tested another tablet in the hot water (51 degrees) to see how long it would take to dissolve and again did it two more times to calculate a mean. Finally they tested another tablet in water left on the hot plate for thirty-seconds (81 degrees), preformed the experiment for two more trials and then calculated the mean. In the end they had found that their hypothesis that…

    My hypothesis is that the Alka-Seltzer tablet will dissolve fastest in salt water, and the slowest in cold water. I think it will dissolve fastest in salt water because of the salt. I think it will dissolve slowest in cold water because the cold water doesn’t help the Alka-Seltzer dissolve faster.…

    This lesson will have students investigating the effect of temperature on a simple chemical reaction, effervescent tablets bubbling in water. (Be sure to use uncoated tablets.) The students will design an experiment to test their hypotheses and gather data to create and support their conclusions. We will provide students with warm water, cold water, and room-temperature tap water. Students will have access to various probes, including the temperature probe. We expect students will measure the temperature of the different samples of water before adding the tablets. We will have a discussion with students about what they think those bubbles are prior to letting them design and conduct their experiments. Some may choose to measure CO2 as well, after this discussion.…
