Introduction to Experiment. Alright, to begin, here are the important aspects of our experiment, testing the chemical reaction between Alka-Seltzer and water This reaction rate experiment explores the affects of surface area, temperature, and pressure on the rate of a chemical reaction. In this experiment, the reaction is between an Alka seltzer tablet (sodium bicarbonate + citric acid) and water. When an Alka seltzer tablet is placed in water, the H+ ions from citric acid react with the bicarbonate. Step 5. Make a small paper cone and tape it to the top of the rocket if you would like a nose cone. Step 6. Hold the rocket upside down and add water to the canister to one-quarter full. Step 7. Add half a tablet of Alka-Seltzer to the film canister and quickly snap on the lid. Step 8 Alka-Seltzer tablet. Funnel. Fill the bottle 3/4 full with vegetable oil. Fill the rest of the bottle with water (almost to the top but not overflowing). Add 4-5 drops of food coloring. Divide the Alka-Seltzer tablet into 4 pieces. Drop one of the pieces of Alka-Seltzer into the oil and water mixture. Watch what happens
With this particular experiment, we worked with Alka Seltzer, which is a base, or a molecule that can take up hydrogen ions. This is in contrast with an acid , which is a molecule that donates. The Alka-Seltzer Experiment; Published on Mar 28, 2020. Abstract. The objective: The purpose of this experiment was to find out whether there was an optimum amount of Alka-Seltzer to water that would pop the lid of the film canister that they were contained in. My hypothesis on this was that 1/2 of an Alka-Seltzer and 1/3 of a canister of water. Alka-Seltzer is a medical drug that works as a pain reliever and an antacid (antacids help neutralize stomach acidity, such as heartburn). The pain reliever used is aspirin and the antacid used is baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO 3).To take the tablets, they should be fully dissolved in a glass of water

See more ideas about science for kids, fun science, alka seltzer Dependent(Responding) Variables: My dependent (responding) variable is the reaction rate of the Alka-Seltzer. Controlled Variables: My controlled variables are the water, the type of Alka-Seltzer, and the speed of dropping each circle of Alka-Seltzer into each cup of water. They all remain the same during the experiment
When the bubbles pop, the color blobs sink back to the bottom of the bottle, and the whole thing starts over until the Alka-Seltzer is used up. When the chemical reaction between the Alka-Seltzer and water is over and the bubbling stops, you're left with a cool looking wave bottle that will sit proudly on your desk Put a thermometer in the cold water beaker and put the temperature in your table. Get the stop watch and an Alka Seltzer ready. Put the Alka Seltzer in the water, and the moment it touches, begin the time. My data supports my hypothesis. . The Alka Seltzer finsihed fizzing faster in warmer temperatures
Why this Science Experiment Works. The water and oil do not mix and the oil doesn't change color because the food coloring is water soluble. The Alka Seltzer reacts with the water to make bubbles of carbon dioxide. The bubbles attach themselves to the blobs of colored water and bring them to the top of the glass In this experiment, you will be measuring the time it takes for one Alka-Seltzer tablet to react completely in water. You will investigate how the reaction time changes as you vary the particle size of the reactants. You will use the same glass for repeated trials, so it is convenient to mark the desired water level Cut out a pie shape from the circle and twist the paper into a cone. Tape the cone together then tape it on the open end of the paper tube. Turn the rocket upside down and fill the canister 1/3 full with water. Drop in a 1/2 tablet of Alka-Seltzer and snap the lid on tight
(mixing 1 shot of water, 1 full Alka Seltzer, and some Meth.) I said sure just put .1 in it because I don't want to over do it. This guy puts about a gram and .5 in my water while I was not looking. I asked him if it was a .1 and he said yes. After 30 minutes a huge body high rushes me from head to toe. I start moaning and getting horny In this activity, students will experiment with the reaction between Alka Seltzer tablets and water in different conditions. By changing temperature and the surface area available for reaction, students will begin to see what factors chemical engineers can control to get the desired result

For this experiment our control variables were the amount of water, the amount of Alka Seltzer and the temperature of the water As seen on the graph below when the Alka Seltzer was crushed, in order to increase the surface area, the time at which it dissolved in water was visibly less than that of the crushed and whole Alka Seltzer tablets Effect Of Dissolving Alka Seltzer In Different Liquids. The topic of this experiment is investigating and researching whether different properties in different types of liquids affect the amount of time it takes for an Alka-Seltzer to dissolve. The independent variable would be the amount of liquid being used to dissolve the Alka-Seltzer pill
After completing the experiment, it was clear that changing the amount of surface area of the alka seltzer drastically improved the rate of reaction, by almost 35%. By adding surface area, the reaction occurred faster. For the experiment, I took three alka seltzer tablets and experimented with their surface area The control represents a natural greenhouse effect. This bottle contains water vapor and some small amount of CO 2. The bottle with the 4 Alka-Seltzer tablets represents an environment with an increased concentration of CO 2. When Alka-Seltzer is dissolved in water, CO 2 is released and carried to the surface by small bubbles • Extra: Test Alka-Seltzer tablets in a wider range of temperatures, and then draw a graph showing the time it takes a tablet to dissolve in water at each temperature (check with a thermometer) Fill their canisters with water. The water represents the living water, Jesus, that enters their lives when they are saved. Show the children an Alka-Seltzer tablet. The Alka-Seltzer tablet represents the Holy Spirit. Jesus promised that the baptism of the Holy Spirit would give power (authority, boldness)

Backgroun Alka Seltzer tablets We set up our experiment in a sandbox, which was ideal for this project as the sand quickly absorbed the liquid and made the project look more like a real rock volcano. But, you can cover your jar with any material you like, or even just leave it exposed Alka Seltzer Experiment Results 257 Words | 2 Pages. After the experiment, I thought about and considered that if the rate of the reaction in which the alka seltzer tablet dissolves is related to the surface area, so by increasing the surface are it will increase the rate of reaction to when the tablet dissolves in the water a chemical reaction. Inside the alka-seltzer tablet is an acid and a base. When you add water, the acid and base react and give off carbon dioxide gas. The gas builds up in the canister and pushes on it. Once there is too much gas, the force of it pushes off the cap. The force of the gases pushes down on the floor, but the rocket goes up in the.
The best middle school science fair projects can be cheap, quick and straightforward. By studying the effect of easily controlled variables on the rate of the chemical reaction of Alka-Seltzer and solution rate of sugar cubes, students gain experience with all the elements of the scientific method, including. The alka seltzer just makes the bottle more fun because it makes the colorful water blobs move without shaking the bottle. The alka seltzer tablets dissolve in the the water and make carbon dioxide gas (like we saw vinegar and baking soda do in the Exploding Ziploc experiment). The carbon dioxide gas bubbles attach to the colorful water blobs. Never did the Alka-Seltzer experiment. I would think it would eventually pop the lid off, since when you drop it in water it forms lots of bubbles. As more gas bubbles form, the pressure inside the container will keep going up. When it is greater than the friction force of the lid, it would start to move the cover These Alka-Seltzer Rockets were inspired by CSC Toys' Mighty Seltzer Powered Rockets. The little insert that came with the rocket also had some great experiments to try: hot water vs cold water, different amounts of water, different amounts of tablet. Great conversations about independent, dependent, control/constant variables, and.
Activity: Controlled Propulsion Experiment - Film Canister. A film canister, Alka Seltzer, and water can demonstrate how a rocket engine works. The Alka Seltzer in the film canister, when mixed with water, produces a gas. When there is too much gas to hold in the canister, we say there is a high amount of pressure The Alka Seltzer reacts with the water to make bubbles of carbon dioxide, which attach themselves to the colored water and rise to the top of the glass. Will Tums work for lava lamp experiment? Adding Antacid Tablets In the other lava lamp, the heavy antacid tablet sinks to the bottom where it reacts with water to produce carbon dioxide gas Two days ago in science class, we held an experiment with Alka-Seltzer in order to demonstrate the scientific method/process.This experiment centered around whether Alka-Seltzer dissolved faster in water or carbonated water. Our group proposed that Alka-Seltzer dissolved in carbonated water faster due to the reactiveness of carbonated water. Ms Oil and Water Lava Lamp Experiment.

Break an Alka-Seltzer tablet in half and drop it in the water For this experiment, you are going to need some water, vegetable oil, a glass, some Alka-Seltzer and some food coloring. By: Elissia Wilson Posted at 4:00 PM, Jun 11, 202 Water and oil don't mix. The oil won't change color because the food coloring is water-soluble. The Alka Seltzer reacts with the water to make bubbles of carbon dioxide, which attach themselves to the colored water and rise to the top of the glass. When the bubbles pop, the colored water falls to the bottom of the glass
Experiment Proper In this experiment, Alka-Seltzer® Original tablets will be dissolved in various volumes of vinegar (acetic acid) and the amount of gaseous CO 2 produced in the reaction (eqn 1) can be indirectly measured from the mass lost. One mole of CO 2 is produced per one mole of NaHCO 3 consumed. From the mass of CO Want to try an interesting little science experiment at home? This looks fun. Alka Seltzer, oil and water in a glass become a lava lamp of sorts. Alka Seltzer, oil and water Looks like some food.
The purpose of this experiment was the reaction rate, and how surface area affected the reaction rate between water and alka seltzer tablets. The half crushed tablet had more particles in the tablet causing more surface area to dissolve in the water. The more surface area in the tablet, the more efficient it is in reacting in with water Oil is also less dense than water, so the water sinks to the bottom and the oil ends up on top. *It's important to use water-based paint for this experiment. Not that any paint for kids is oil-based, but just saying! When you drop an Alka Seltzer into your lava lamp, it won't react with the oil
