Calcium carbonate is an example of a chemical compound that is used in a variety of applications, including as a dietary supplement, antacid, and in the manufacturing of cement, paper, and plastics.
Calcium carbonate in Rennie tablets works as an antacid by neutralizing excess stomach acid to provide relief from indigestion, heartburn, and upset stomach. It helps to soothe irritation in the stomach lining and reduce symptoms of acidity.
Calcium Carbonate
Tums, it contains calcium carbonate
An antacid contains hydroxides of magnesium and aluminium, bicarbonates of calcium and sodium.
Calcium carbonate. It combines with excess acid to produce water.
A common compound in antacids is calcium carbonate. Sodium bicarbonate is also an antacid.
I was wondering how to write a word equation of the reactions that occurred between the acid and the respective active ingredients of each of the different antacid powders.i used t he following acntacids;Gastrogel-Magnesium Hydroxide, Aluminium HydroxideSandocal-Calcium Carbonate, Calcium Lactate, GluconateRennie-Calcium Carbonate, Magnesium CarbonateMylanta Double-Magnesium Hydroxide, Aluminium HydroxideMylanta-Magnesium Hydroxide, Aluminium HydroxideDewitt's-Calcium Carbonate, Magnesium Carbonate Sodium Bicarbonate Magnesium Hydroxide
rolaids is the best Calcium Carbonate antacid. i just did a lab on this
When an antacid tablet dissolves in water, it undergoes a chemical change. The active ingredients in the tablet, like calcium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide, react with stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) to neutralize it, forming salt and water. This chemical reaction helps to relieve acidity in the stomach.
rennies are made from calcium carbonate and magnesium chloride :)
Calcium carbonate, like other carbonates, is alkaline.
