The active ingredients/chemical compound present in the involved antacids Medi-first, Gelusil, Acalak and Alka-Seltzer are listed respectively: calcium carbonate, aluminum hydroxide/magnesium hydroxide, calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate (provided in Table 2). The effectiveness of each antacid listed above was tested and calculated in the same manner. Phenolphthalein…

However, the best three trials were used to calculate the average and the trials had to come within about 0.1 mL of each other. The following antacids were used: Gelusil, Alka Seltzer, Medifirst, and Alcalak tablets. The Alcalak was used for this specific group. The first trial came to be 11.3 mL NaOH and was converted to liters (L). The 0.0013 L was multiplied by 0.25 M NaOH to get 0.002825 moles of sodium hydroxide. The same…

The neutralization capabilities of all four were evaluated using back titration. One 100 mL Erlenmeyer flask, four 50 mL Erlenmeyer flasks, and a tablet of commercial antacid were obtained. The antacid tablet tested was Alka-seltzer/Effervescent. First the tablet was crushed and dissolved in 100 mL of 0.15 M HCl solution in the 100 mL Erlenmeyer flask. CO2 (aq) is a common product that can act as a buffer during titration. Therefore CO2 was heated under the hood (which ensured…

Antacids are a form of medication that many people take to help with an imbalance of the pH of their stomach acid because it neutralizes the gastric acid present (Antacids | Drugs.com). Although the is not just one brand of antacid that is available to people, and most people want to take the best antacid that will help with their acid imbalance. In our lab, we were given the question of which antacid out of the antacids provided to us was the “best” at neutralizing stomach acid. To answer that…

experiment is to identify which antacid is the best at neutralizing stomach acid. Antacids are commonly used self-prescribed medications. The stomach produces hydrochloric acid, which has a range of pH (1.5 to 3.5). Several antacids such as Gelusil, Alka Seltzer/effervescent, Alcalak, and Medi-first were indirectly titrated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), which is a strong base. By using the back titration technique, the amount…

In a closed system nor physical or chemical change can destroy nor create any matter. Physical change affects the form or the way an object looks without changing the chemical composition of it. Yet on the other hand chemical change has everything to do with the composition, such as applying heat to an object, you can't “unheat” it. The experiments in chapter two have been adding certain substances or combining them and seeing if the mass changes at all, and doing so we mix substances like salt…

urban areas as most of these areas did not have access to electricity. Famous show such as the NBC’s National Barn Dance was very popular amongst the rural people, this way rural farmers found programs of their liking. Introduction to ads like the Alka Seltzer exposed the rural people to the urban consumer culture and encouraged to invest in this culture. Franklin D. Roosevelt’s effective use of the radio to reach to the people helped the rural people keep in touch with and get exposed to the…
