Chemical, bubbles of gas are fromed, it fizzes. --> Yes that is a chemical change that occurs, but the dissolving of the tablet is considered a physical change, therefore a physical and a chemical change occurs when water and an alka-seltzer tablet combine,

Solvation. That is, it's not a chemical reaction, the tablet simply dissolves.

The chemical reaction that causes the bubbling comes from two different compounds within the Alka-Seltzer tablet itself. The compounds do not react with each other until they dissolve in water.

NaHCO3 + HCl ==> NaCl + CO2 + H20 = reaction with HCl

it will basically produce an acid base reaction..
