Alka Seltzer Experiment Lab Report
When researching similar projects the scientists found a project where they tested the effect of three different temperatures of water on Alka-Seltzer tablets. In the experiment they first tested how long an Alka-Seltzer tablet would dissolve in cold water ( 9 degrees) then repeated it two more times in order to calculate a mean. Then using a hot plate to heat the water, they tested another tablet in the hot water (51 degrees) to see how long it would take to dissolve and again did it two more times to calculate a mean. Finally they tested another tablet in water left on the hot plate for thirty-seconds (81 degrees), preformed the experiment for two more trials and then calculated the mean. In the end they had found that their hypothesis that

    Alka Seltzer Project Research Paper

    The name of the alka seltzer project is named “The Dropouts.” The significance of that name is that the owners of the machine are very close to dropping out school themselves. Ultimately, the goal of the machine would be to pop a balloon and to blow out a candle. The goal would be achieved by using the potential energy in the balloon, popping it, and using the now present kinetic energy, which is the air, to blow out the flame of the candle. The final products would be a popped balloon and a blown out candle.…

    Why Do Alka Seltzer Expirements

    The Expirement that the chemist will be conducting includes the following materials: hot water, room tepmerature water, cold water, and regular Alka Seltzer tablets. Research on Alka Seltzer in previous expirements shows that it dissolves faster in hotter temperatures of water. It also shows in previous expirements that Alka Seltzer dissolves slower in colder temperatures of water rather than hotter temoeratures. Alka Seltzer is an antacid that contains aspirin. It is made in tablets that dissolve in water to give a fizzy reaction.…

    In this experiment, we will develop five solutions that will be tested to figure which one of these solutions will dissolve an Alka seltzer tablet the fastest. The following essentials for this experiment will include Alka seltzer tablets that will be split in half. We will also use one solid tablet for a different result. This experiment will include water in different temperatures and additional ingredients such as ice, salt and vinegar that will be included to see which solution works more effectively. The Hypothesis: Hot boiling water will dissolve the Alka Seltzer tablet the fastest.…

    It was also assumed that both Sol.A and Sol.B beakers were exactly at the same temperature when the reaction occurred. Even though the temperatures of both beakers were recorded, it was highly likely that the temperature increased or decreased between the time when they were taken out of the water baths and the time they were mixed together. Though this would not be a primary source if error, nonetheless, it can account for a very small part of the experimental…

    Actions Taken: I labeled six test tubes in accordance with their respective Sample number and placed them on the test tube rack. I then placed a pea-sized amount of each sample in their corresponding test tube. Following that, I utilized the graduated cylinder to measure and transfer 5 mL of distilled water into each of the six test tubes. I then placed a rubber stopper on Sample #1, and shook vigorously to determine its solubility. I repeated this with each sample, and then recorded my results in Data Table 1.…

    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. Overall in my experiment, it was successful and it was a valid experiment. This experiment had taught me and to understand that the effect…

    1. The framers created a bicameral legislature because of the Great Compromise at the Constitutional Convention which stated that one house’s representation will be based on a state’s population and the other would have equal representation. Another reason is that it would help prevent tyranny because both houses can “check” each other to make sure one does not get to powerful. One power unique to the House of Representatives is that revenue bills must originate from the House; the framers gave this power to the House because the House of Representatives is more representative of the entire population than the Senate is. One power unique to the Senate is that they are the ones that try the President for impeachment; the framers gave this power to the Senate because they reflect the state’s interests and also because they are more “mature” than the House of Representatives since the required age is higher.…
