All solutes (e.g. Alka-Seltzer) dissolve better in a warmer solvent (e.g. water).
In this lab, i learned more about the experiment.
The heat gives the water molecules more kinetic energy to pull the alka seltzer particles apart (dissolve) , hence the increased temperature would speed up the rate of reaction.
the warm water would speed up the reaction expediting the gas release. also hot water can't hold as much gas. so the answer is 2 part. for the medicinal properties you want to have more gas absorbed so you want it cooler, that really is what helps your stomach, the gases, but for the alka-seltzer rockets etc you want it warmer.
You could use an Alka-Seltzer tablet and record how long it takes for the tablet to dissolve in different temperatures. Since particles move faster in hot water then the Alka-Seltzer tablet should dissolve quicker.
Because in hot water the molecules are moving MUCH faster and can bond to the molecules in the alka seltzer tablets faster.
How water desolves more things. it's like trying to kill germs, you might use hot water. it works for salt to!
Because hot water molecules are moving (Or bouncing around) faster , which is the way the heat is generated , to break the tablet up! And water molecules don't move as fast as hot water molecules!
The hotter the temperature the quicker it will dissolve because the molecules will move faster causing the chemical reaction to speed up
Alka-Seltzer dissolves faster in hot water, because water is the ultimate solvent, and when water is hot, the rate of dissolving of solubility is higher.
Yes, Hot water makes the tablets dissolve much faster than when they are placed in cold water. Alka-Seltzer tablets dissolve faster in hot water rather than cold because the more heat something has the more energy the atoms or molecules in the object get. so in hot water the molecules inside are moving around really fast and have tons of energy to dissolve the tablet while in cold water the molecules are still moving around but at a slower pace therefore taking longer to dissolve the tablet.
