Why does alka-seltzer that is crushed react more then a full tablet in water?
The crushed form of sodium bicarbonate has more surface area than the solid tablet. Because it is exposure to water that causes the reaction, having more surface exposed to water will increase the extent of the reaction.
What water do alka seltzer react in faster?
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.
What happens when salt and sand are mixed with water?
You get a mixture of salt and sand. Nothing more happens.
What are the causes of dissolution of tablet?
This depends on the nature of tablet, temperature of water, stirring, crushing of the tablet to a fine powder, etc.
What happens to photosynthesis when you increase the water?
there is more excess water being un-used
Is the antacid tablet more or less dense than water?
The tablet is denser than water, however it floats! this is because it fizzes and the bubble stick to the tablet making a unit of gas and tablet that is less dense than water.

How do you think the amount of a material affects its tendency to sink or float?
All by itself, the 'mass' of an object ... the amount of material in it ... doesn't tell you anything about whether it will sink or float. An AlkaSeltzer tablet and a large boulder both sink, but a duck and a large steel battleship both float. There must be more to it.

Does the temperature of water effect effervescent tablets?
Yes! The more the temperature increases, the more time decreases. Sample: If you have one cup full with water (20 oC) and a cup with water (30 oC) and you put tablets in them, the tablet in the 30 oC cup will dissolve faster. It is so, because when the water boils it formes bubles, as the tablet during dissolving time.
Can you blow up a balloon chemically?
Fill a two liter soft drink bottle with about one cup of water. Place two Alkaseltzer tablets into a deflated balloon and carefully crush them without damaging the balloon. Stretch the mouth of the balloon over the mouth of the bottle. Tip up the balloon to drop the tablet fragments into the bottle and the ballon will inflate. The same can be done with regular Mentos candies and Diet Coke, but the reaction will be MUCH more dramatic (and messy).
Why is less gas collected when more water is used to dissolve an Alka-Seltzer tablet?
Some of the gas dissolves in the water. Gas is only evolved from the water when there is no room for it in solution.
What happens when salt and sand are mixed with water?

What happens when something is more dense then water?
it sinks

What happens to water if you compress it more and more and more?
nothing will happen it will flow to the sides
What should you do if a pill goes into your lungs?
