Is it safe to take Alka Seltzer and Tylenol together?
Both contain acetominophen, it being the active ingredient in Tylenol, it is either one or the other.
What is the pH of alka seltzer?
The pH of alka seltzer is approximately 9.2 on the pH scale. Source: Challney High School For Boys Luton Investigation for Neutralistaion
Is alka seltzer neutral?
Alka seltzer is technically both. It is a dry mixture of sodium bicarbonate (a base) and citric acid (an acid). When mixed with water, the acid and base react with each other and produce carbon dioxide (the fizz), and sodium citrate.
Is adding alkali to acid a chemical or physical change?
This is a chemical change, because the carbon dioxide is created from the ingredients when placed in solution. The effervescence is caused when citric acid and sodium bicarbonate combine to form sodium citrate, releasing carbon dioxide gas.
Can one cure urinary tract infections with Alka-Seltzer?
Generally speaking, Alka-Seltzer can help prevent a UTI at the very onset of the infection, but it can't cure the cause of a UTI. If your symptoms disappear after taking this medication, you still should see a doctor to make sure the bacteria is gone since UTIs can do further damages to your body if left untreated. In fact, uti can be cured radically by herbal medicine named diuretic and anti-inflammatory pill. Both the symptoms and the causes can be eliminated.
Alka seltzer in water a chemical change?
The purpose of this experiment was to determine how much time it would take for alca seltzer and water inside a film canister to react and make the lid of a film canister to pop off. There were four different controlled settings to determine the quantities, and the state of the alca seltzer to find out which of these four settings was the best way to create the most reaction in the same controlled environment (the film canister). Our class knows that alca seltzer and water combined creates a gas, so we decided to get into groups and figure out what is the best combination of alca seltzer and water to create this reaction in the fastest amount of time I believe it isjizz juice mixed with some kalypso on the side ~!~!~!~ When the Alka Seltzer is put into the water, in creates CO2 gas. Why is this? The Alka-Seltzer have the main ingredient which is the baking powder. Baking powders have acetic acid or tartaric acid and sodium bicarbonate. When the tablet dissolves the components of baking powder(the acid and the base) react with one another and produces gas(CO2).
Can you take alka seltzer and imodium together?
Yes. In the past my doctor has had me on both at the same time, taking each several times daily, but only for 2 or 3 days at a time.
Can naproxen test positive as an opiate?

Ingredients in alka seltzer plus cold?
Alka seltzer contains a combination of aspirin, citric acid, and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda). The aspirin works to relieve headaches and muscle pain. The last two ingredients, citric acid and sodium bicarbonate, are simply a mixture of a weak acid and a weak base (when you add alka seltzer to water, the fizzing is the reaction of the two with each other). When you have a weak acid and a weak base, the result is a buffer solution, which works to stabilize the pH.Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic acid) is also a weak acid which would be water soluble. However, in drinking water it will dissolve slowly. Adding a weak base (sodium bicarbonate) would help force the aspirin into it's conjugate base form, increasing the polarity, and thus increase solubility.Other WikiAnswers pages indicate a pH of 9.2, a basic solution which is probably to increase the solubility of the Aspirin, as well as both buffering the effects of Aspirin's acidity on the stomach lining, as well as working as an antacid to buffer the stomach acid.One notes, of course, that Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO3) dissociates in water (with the help of acetic acid) into Na+ OH- CO2, I.E. Sodium Hydroxide, a base, and Carbon Dioxide which would be the direct cause of the fizzing effect.See the Web Links and Related Questions to the left for more information.
Is ibuprofen the same as Motrin?
They are both NSAIDS and should not be taken together, but no; they are different medications. Motrin is Ibuprofen. Aleve is Naproxen Sodium. They are both anti-inflammatory medicines, with similar side effect profiles. They should not be taken together.

Alka_Seltzer plus cold and cephalexin 500 mg can I take them together ?
Can I take alka seltzer plus and in one hour take NyQuil?
This does not sound like a smart move. Check with a Doctor or a pharmacist to see which product will work best for whatever you have going on. If you are using these things for a recreational buzz, the outcome might not be as you would wish.
