198 Words1 Page

Objectives In this lab, you will investigate the percent composition by mass of CO2 in Alka-Seltzer® tablets. In addition, you will find out how much CO2 is released into the atmosphere as 2 Alka-Seltzer® tablets chemically react in vinegar. Procedure 250-mL beaker 100-mL graduated cylinder Scale 60 mL of Vinegar 2 Alka-Seltzer® tablets Materials 1. Clean and dry 250 mL beaker. 2. Determine the mass of 2 Alka-Seltzer® tablets. 3. Measure 60 mL of vinegar using a graduated cylinder. 4. Pour the vinegar into the 250 mL beaker and measure the mass of the beaker with vinegar. 5. Calculate the mass of the beaker with vinegar plus the mass of the two Alka-Seltzer® tablets. 6. Carefully drop the two Alka-Seltzer® tablets into the vinegar

    Next, about 10 mL of both solutions, Red 40 and Blue 1, were added to a small beaker. The concentration of the stock solution were recorded, 52.1 ppm for Red 40 and 16.6 ppm for Blue 1. Then, using the volumetric pipette, 5 mL of each solution was transferred into a 10 mL volumetric flask, labelled either R1 or B1. Deionized water was added into the flask using a pipette until the solution level reached a line which indicated 10 mL. A cap for the flask was inserted and the flask was invented a few times to completely mix the solution. Then, the volumetric pipette was rinsed with fresh deionized water and

    Alka-Seltzer is a medical drug that works as a pain reliever and an antacid. The pain reliever used is aspirin and the antacid used is baking soda. When sodium bicarbonate dissolves in water it splits apart into sodium and bicarbonate ions. The bicarbonates reacts with hydrogen ions from citric acid to form carbon dioxide gas and water. This is how the bubbles are made.

The experiments were conducted online using Late Nite Labs. Materials: Because the experiments were conducted online there wasn’t any physical use of materials, only digital ones, for these labs to be performed. Only the registration for the website was needed to perform these online labs, as well as a desktop computer.

    As much was conducted throughout this lab, the projected completion of this lab displays that ultimately, the higher the temperature of the water, the faster the dissolving rate of the Alka-Seltzer is. In other words, the hotter the water temperature the quicker the tablet dissolves within the water in regards to the amount of time it took to dissolve. Furthermore, this experiment helps to explain that, if water is taken at a higher temperature and Alka-Seltzer is placed within the water, the Alka-Seltzer will take less time to dissolve because the higher temperatures cause the tablet to melt at a quicker rate. This compares to when Alka-Seltzer is placed in colder temperatures, where instead it takes more time to dissolve, because the lower

    Citric acid, aspirin and sodium hydrogen carbonate are the main constituents of alka seltzer. Its main role is to reduce headaches, period pains, migraines, muscular pains and symptoms of colds and flues, as well has curing problems related with an upset stomach. Aspirin works to reduce pain and swellings; it is an anti- inflammatory drug and belongs to a group of drugs called NSAIDs as it does not contain steroids. The enzyme cyclo-oxygenase which speeds up the production of prostaglandins is blocked by aspirin.

    Introduction Alka-Seltzer has been on the market since 1931 and has helped to relieve indigestion and upset stomach. The tablets began to fizz and bubble when dropped into water. “The fizziness happens when baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and citric acid react chemically in water. They yield sodium citrate, water and carbon dioxide gas, which causes bubbles.” Based on this information, we will measure the reaction time of AlKa- Seltzer dissolved in 200 ml of water at 3 different tempertures in the first portion of this experiment.

    After reflux, we removed the reaction mixture from the apparatus and cooled it for several minutes. We transferred the mixture to the beaker that contained water (30 mL). We cooled the mixture to room temperature and added sodium carbonate to neutralize the mixture. We added sodium carbonate until the pH of the mixture was 8. After neutralize, we collected benzocaine by vacuum filtration.

    Within the chemical reaction are two different parts, the reactant and product. The reactant, “an initial substance in a chemical reaction” was the alka-seltzer tablets, before they were placed into the water. For instance, when the untouched alka-seltzer was then placed into the water, it formed the product, “the final substance in the chemical reaction” (Tro, 2018). Now, by looking at how the water, or the solvent, dissolved the alka-seltzer tablet, it then created a solute, or a “dissolved substance” (Shuster, 2014). Another example, on a personal level, of a chemical reaction was, whenever I had a sore throat, as a child, my

    The topic of research is, “how fast does an Alka-Seltzer tablet make gas?”. In the experiment, the scientists will be measuring the chemical reaction rates that occur, when 1 Alka-Seltzer tablet is placed in a specific temperature of water. The independent variable during the experiment will be the temperature of the water (degrees Celsius). The dependent variable during the experiment will be, the rate in which gas is produced (in seconds). The constants of the experiment, will be the amount of water used and the Alka Selter compound.

    Introduction Buffer is a solution that resists a change in pH when bases or acid are added. Solutions that are acidic contain high concentrations of hydrogen ions (H+) and have pH values less than seven. Buffer usually consist of a weak acid, and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. The function of buffer is to resist the changes in hydrogen ion concentration as a result of internal and environmental factor. This buffer experiment is important so that we relies the important of buffer in our life.
