Alka-Seltzer Reaction Rates Lab What are the different factors the effect the reaction rate of Alka-Seltzer? Matthew Arkfeld Leah Gilligan Jessie Abbott Period 4 June 2nd‚ 2008 Background Research: o The objective of the experiment was to determine if different factors affect the reaction rate of Alka-Seltzer. Alka-Seltzer provides fast relief to acid indigestion‚ upset stomach‚ heartburn‚ headaches‚ body aches and pains. It is an antacid and pain relief medicine used by millions

Aim – To compare the mass of the products of a chemical reaction with the mass of its reactants. Hypothesis- The total mass should increase Materials – 1x Safety glasses. 250ml conical flask. 4x Alka-Seltzer tablets. 1x Balloon. Matches. 1x Electronic balance. 100ml measuring cylinder. Water. Method – *Place the conical flask on the balance and pour in 100ml of water. 1. Place two tablets alongside the conical flask and record the total mass. *Remove the flask from the balance and drop the tablets

Determination of NaHCO3 in Alka-Seltzer Introduction: Sodium Bicarbonate also referred to as baking soda‚ Bicarbonate of soda‚ Sodium hydrogen carbonate‚ and Carbonic Acid Monosodium salt‚ acts an ionic or salt compound when put in an aqueous solution. Its molecular weight is 84.006 g/mol and it is usually found in a dry powder form that is similar to slat. It is white‚ odorless‚ and has a melting point of 108.9 degrees Celsius. It has a density of 2.1 g/cm3. Sodium Bicarbonate is an electrolyte

Alka-Seltzer Form Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to determine if changing the form of Alka-Seltzer when added to the water‚ affects the time it takes for the cap to burst. Introduction: Alka-Seltzer is a remedy for indigestion that is dissolved in water and ingested by mouth. The active ingredient is sodium bicarbonate‚ which is baking soda. Alka-Seltzer reacts with water to produce carbon dioxide gas. In an enclosed space‚ like a film canister‚ the pressure of the gas increases

Alka-Seltzer Rocket Formal Lab Report Abstract In the Alka-Seltzer Rocket lab one was to experimentally determine how much (grams) Alka-Seltzer and water in mL‚ is needed to launch the rocket the highest/longest distance in cm. Also to experimentally determine the % NaHCO3 in the tablet using the information from the highest/longest distance. Calculate the error and % error of NaHCO3 in an Alka-Seltzer tablet and to determine the limiting reagent for the highest/longest distance traveled. Alka-Seltzer

Alka-Seltzer Experiment Ideas 1.) Put Alka-Seltzer in different liquids and observe the reactions. 2.) Put Alka-Seltzer in different sealed containers (film canisters‚ sandwich bags‚ etc. and observe the reactions. 3.) Explore activity using Pop Rocks candy. 4.) Put Alka-Seltzer tablets into four different liquids (milk‚ orange juice‚ Coke‚ water) observe the reactions. 5.) Place Alka-Seltzer on a plate and pour a steady stream of water on it to see if it reacts any differently than

There are 5 easy steps to making a lava lamp Step 1: Fill the bottle 3/4 of the way full with vegetable oil then top it off with water and about 10 drops of food coloring (or enough to make the solution appear fairly dark). Step 2: Cut an Alka-Seltzer tablet into pieces. You can either ration the pieces

Then an Alka-Seltzer tablet was added‚ quickly covered with a cap and was observed until the film cap popped off. The time was then immediately recorded and the procedure was the repeated three times each with whole and crushed Alka-Seltzer tablets. Then results from three fellow classmates’ experiments would be recorded and added to our own results. The hypothesis was that more surface area exposed and smaller volume would result in a faster chemical reaction of the material. Since the Alka-Seltzer

lab we tested the reaction of alka seltzer in water. We used water and bromothymol blue (BTB) to help hypothesize what was happening with the alka seltzer in water. When we put the alka seltzer tablet in the water‚ it started fizzing. It created a lot of bubbles in the water which tells us that some kind of a gas was created when the alka seltzer was put into the water. The next step was the hypothesize what that gas might be. That mystery gas created by the alka seltzer in water had a reaction with
