∙ 14y agoMany different things could dissolve it besides water. Just get a liquid below 7 on the citric to basic scale (1 citric, 7 middle, and approximately 13 basic) such as:
- vinegar
- napalm (highly unlikely)
- liquid gases (CO2 is one of them)
That is my answer.

How long does it take for a tablet to dissolve?
It doesn't. The amount of time it takes for a tablet to dissolves depends on the tablet brand. Some brand names dissolve faster but some other tablets can dissolve faster.
Why does hot water make the tablet dissolve faster?
As a general rule the solubility of solids in water or other solvents is improved raising the temperature.
What evidence of a chemical reaction might you see in dropping an alka-seltzer tablet into water?
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,
Would ink dissolve faster or slower in warm water?
Faster. Because the hotter/warmer the substance, the faster ink or any other material would dissolve in it.
Why does Alka Seltzer dissolve faster in Apple juice than in water?
Baking soda (and all soluble solids) disolve faster in hot water because the heat makes the water molecules move faster. Therefore, they can break up the baking soda into individual ions faster: when a sodium or hydrogen atom is an the edge of a clump of baking soda, the oxygens of water molecules surround them and pull them off. That exposes a carbonate ion, which the hydrogens of water molecules surround and pull off. This repeats until all of the baking soda is broken down into ions.
How does higher temperature allow gases to dissolve faster?
The hotter it is the faster the molecules will move away from each other
What is the physical properties of an alka seltzer?
Thephysical properties of an alka seltzer is the color stays the same, can not be reversed, and the tablet is very smooth and soft.Their are probably other physical properties but these were all i could come up with in the making an ddoing of the experiment.you can go to a website and look at pictures. thanks
What happens when alka seltzer is placed in water?
If you look at the ingredients for Alka-Seltzer, you will find that it contains citric acid and sodium bicarbonate(baking soda). When you drop the tablet in water, the acid and the baking soda react -- this produces the fizz.
How long does it take alka seltzer to dissolve in water?
Alka-Seltzer contains various soluable compounds, such as asperin and citric acid, combined in a tablet form with bicarbonate of soda. The bicarbonate of soda reacts when it is in water, giving off carbon dioxide. This action makes the other materials present disolve faster than they otherwise would. The bicarbonate of soda also helps neutralize some stomach acid when the resulting solution is drunk.
Does sugar dissolve faster than salt when all other variables are the same?
Sugar dissolves in a liquid faster than salt does. The reason is that sugar is less dense as a solute than salt is, leading to it dissolving in the solvent faster as it would fit into the 'empty gaps' that the solvent has at a much faster rate, which is how substances dissolve.
Why does salt dissolve faster in hot water rather than cold?
In hot water the water molecules are moving at a faster rate than they move in cold water. The faster moving molecules hit the salt molecules with greater force and knock them away from the other salt molecules faster. That way the salt molecules dissolve in the water quicker.
Do you have to chew tums for them to work?
you don't have to chew them to make them work. but chewing them and any other tablet medication will make it work faster
