Rolaids work by neutralizing excess stomach acid, which helps to relieve heartburn and indigestion. The active ingredients in Rolaids, such as calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide, react with the acid in the stomach to form a neutral compound, reducing the burning sensation and discomfort associated with heartburn.
The pH of tums/rolaids should be pretty close to 10.
Acid + base conjugate base + conjugate acid
When Rolaids, which contain calcium carbonate, are mixed with vinegar (which is acetic acid), a chemical reaction occurs that produces carbon dioxide gas. This reaction causes foaming or bubbling, similar to the fizzing sensation in antacids, but it is not recommended as a way to treat heartburn or acid indigestion.
Acetamide is a weak base. It can undergo protonation to form the conjugate acid, acetic acid, in acidic solutions.
Base neutralizes acid. So, for stomach acid, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) or antacids (such as Rolaids or Tums) which are made up of calcium carbonate, these base compounds neutralize acid.

Rolaids contain calcium and magnesium. Both of these help to neutralize acid released in the stomach. They do not prevent new acid from being released.
The main ingredients in Rolaids are calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide. Either one of them can help neutralize excess acid in the stomach. When the acid goes back up the esophagus, it can result in heartburn.

No! TUMS are good BUT Rolaids dissolve easier and are quicker to neutralize acid. ***Personally neither of them are the best to me. They both have calcium. Too much calcium ends up causing acid reflux, which means you have to pop another tums or rolaids again. I think Gingera is the best antacid. Why? because it's all natural. It's effervescent and all you need to do is take it once for your indigestion or nausea to vanish.
Which ever one has the most Ca2C03, or calcium carbonate.
Both Tums and Rolaids are effective antacids that neutralize stomach acid. Tums contains calcium carbonate as the active ingredient, while Rolaids contains calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide. The choice between the two may depend on personal preference and any specific dietary considerations.
Antacids are basic in nature. They work by neutralizing excess stomach acid to relieve symptoms of indigestion and acid reflux. Popular antacids like Tums and Rolaids typically contain compounds like calcium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide, which react with stomach acid to reduce acidity.
