Alka-Seltzer is made of aspirin, citric acid, and sodium bicarbonate. When sodium bicarbonate dissolves in water, it splits up to make sodium. Then, the bicarbonate reacts with hydrogen ions from the citric acid to form the citric acid to form carbon dioxide and water. The carbon dioxide is a gas that makes the bubbles you see when you drop the tablets in water.
