This makes an endothermic reaction and a drop in temperature. When the baking soda is added to the citric acid it begins to bubble. After a few seconds the citric acid will stop bubbling and remain calm.

What causes an exothermic reaction with alka seltzer?

Alka-Seltzer contains aspirin, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and citric acid. When placed in water, the tablet dissolves. The citric acid reacts with the baking soda, and gives off carbon dioxide, which makes bubbles in the water. If you have heartburn, that is caused by too much stomach acid. The baking soda in an Alka-Seltzer counteracts the stomach acid.

Why do citric acid and baking soda only react with water?

They do not react with water, but instead they react with each other when dissolved in water,m an aqueous solution. For example, acids are only really "acidic" when they are dissolved in water...acidic meaning they give off H+ ions. So, since citric acid is an acid, and baking soda is a base, when the citric acid and baking soda dissolve in water, they react with each other forming sodium citrate, carbon dioxide and water
