Alka Seltzer Tablet
In this experiment, we will develop five solutions that will be tested to figure which one of these solutions will dissolve an Alka seltzer tablet the fastest. The following essentials for this experiment will include Alka seltzer tablets that will be split in half. We will also use one solid tablet for a different result. This experiment will include water in different temperatures and additional ingredients such as ice, salt and vinegar that will be included to see which solution works more effectively. The Hypothesis: Hot boiling water will dissolve the Alka Seltzer tablet the fastest.

    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.…

    When the tablet went into the water it made the water start spinning. The dry ice started steaming up because when dry ice and water react they start producing carbon dioxide gasses. Hydrochloric acid and dry ice mixed and the water started to change colors from yellow to light green to dark green to dark blue/purple. The dry ice started breaking into chunks and when more hydrochloric acid is added the dry ice disappeared into the solution.…

    o In our lab, our objective was to test if water at different temperatures, salt, and vinegar, would affect the reaction rate of Alka Seltzer tablets. However we thought, that the size of the tablet would not matter. Therefore, we decided to test Alka Seltzer broken into fragment and completely ground up as well as the normal tablet.…

    Actions Taken: I labeled six test tubes in accordance with their respective Sample number and placed them on the test tube rack. I then placed a pea-sized amount of each sample in their corresponding test tube. Following that, I utilized the graduated cylinder to measure and transfer 5 mL of distilled water into each of the six test tubes. I then placed a rubber stopper on Sample #1, and shook vigorously to determine its solubility. I repeated this with each sample, and then recorded my results in Data Table 1.…

    The reaction that you will be investigating is the reaction that occurs when an Alka-Seltzer tablet is placed into a given amount of water. Alka-Seltzer is an over-the-counter antacid and pain relief medication that is dissolved in water before it is ingested. Each tablet contains aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid), citric acid, and sodium bicarbonate. As the tablet dissolves in water, the bicarbonate ions in the tablet react with the hydrogen ions from the acids that are also contained in the tablet. The carbon dioxide gas that is produced by the reaction is what causes the bubbling that can be observed.…

    In my science project I will be doing “What is the fastest ways to cool soda?”. I believe, that the salted ice water bath will be the most effective one and cool the sodas the fastest. The salted ice bath with water can lower the temperature of the soda to 44 degrees in 5 minutes. There are several ways that I could cool soda. Some of the most popular methods to cool are in a salted ice bath with water, ice bath no water, and the freezer. I will be testing these ways with different types of soda each time with 3 trials.…

    An Alka-Seltzer tablet was accurately weighed and recorded using a weighing boat and analytical balance. A fragmented piece between 0.2100g and 0.2800g was also weighed and recorded. 500mL of water was placed in a 600mL beaker. 80mL of water was then mixed with 20mL of 6M HCl in a 150mL beaker to create 1.2M HCl. A 1.5g piece of Alka-Seltzer tablet was then added to the HCl solution. After complete evolution of CO2, gravity filtration was used to catch all of the starch produced from the reaction. The buret was filled with the filtrated solution and the glass tube end of a rubber tube was inserted about 2 inches into the mouth of the buret. While keeping a finger over the buret mouth, the entire buret was quickly inverted and the tubing and mouth completely submerged into the water in the 600mL beaker. The buret was then clamped into place while double checking the buret mouth was under the water level and the rubber tubing was not pinched. The stopcock was then opened extremely slowly until the water level in the buret dropped close to the 50.00mL mark. This level was then recorded.…
