Alka-Seltzer is a name owned by the German Bayer Corporation for a line of medications sold over the counter and taken by means of rapidly dissolving tablets that form an effervescent solution in water.
The familiar fizzing you hear when you drop an Alka-Seltzer tablet into a glass of water is the result of a chemical reaction. It's also the perfect tool for demonstrating some very nifty science principles; things like the factors affecting the rates of chemical reactions, or the colors produced by a chemical reaction. The following are some science experiments appropriate for in-school or at-home use.
From wiki:
The Original Alka-Seltzer's inventation took place at 1931. [1] and is a remedy for back aches, diarrhea, leg cramps, and heartburn. Sodium bicarbonate in Alka-Seltzer also makes it effective in treating mild blood acidosis associated with allergy (see citation). Alka-Seltzer is a combination of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, C9H8O4), sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), and citric acid (C6H8O7), designed to treat pain and simultaneously neutralize excess stomach acid (the "Alka" being derived from the word "alkali"). It is provided in the form of large effervescent tablets, about 1 inch (25 mm) in diameter, which are dissolved (two at a time for the usual adult dosage) in a glass of water. As the tablets dissolve, the base (bicarbonate) and the acid (citric acid) react vigorously producing carbon dioxide gas (hence the "Seltzer"), which also produces enough agitation to allow the active ingredients to dissolve slowly. The patient then ingests the resulting solution.
The product has been extensively advertised since the beginning of the mass media era in the U.S. It was formerly marketed as something of a cure-all; at one time its ads even suggested taking it for "the blahs." Subsequent regulation has taken into consideration that aspirin is a relatively powerful drug which is not tolerated by everyone and should not generally be taken at all by children or adolescents due to its linkage to Reye's syndrome; the product is no longer marketed in this fashion.
At one time the product was available in both long glass tubes and foil packets; the latter is the primary way the product is provided today, with two tablets in each packet.
Upset stomach primarily although they have a cold relief version
I think it would increase the desolving rate
What is it used for
Oxygen is used to produce hot flame which is used in welding purpose
USED for lead and pencils USED for lead and pencils
Do you mean What is used to make CaSO3 or what is CaSO3 used for?
ale, alkaseltzer
Yes.
O
Yes it will !!
Sodium hydrogencarbonate and citric acid react.
Can you mix alkaseltzer & tylenol?
There digestive track is not like a birds, they actually can withstand alkaseltzer to a degree. If you want to explode a cat, try granulated mentos and making it chugdown some diet coke for real results.
Only your doctor can tell, so you are advised to ask them.
I think it would increase the desolving rate
It's really neither cuz it reacts with an acid and a base but i would probably say.... Acid
ask asking ark ankle alkaloid alkaseltzer Eskimo elk ink icky puke duke irk
Beeno is a great over the counter medication, however there are other over the counter meds, tums, alkaseltzer, and rolaids that are great for relief.
