it contains a base (alkali) and so helps to neutralise excess stomach acid.
It can take a few minutes to fully dissolve an antacid tablet in salt water, depending on the size of the tablet and the concentration of salt in the water. The effervescence of the antacid tablet will help to speed up the dissolution process.
When an antacid tablet dissolves in water, it undergoes a chemical change. The active ingredients in the tablet, like calcium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide, react with stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) to neutralize it, forming salt and water. This chemical reaction helps to relieve acidity in the stomach.
The reaction of an antacid tablet with hydrochloric acid is typically exothermic, meaning it releases heat. This is because the reaction between the tablet and acid produces energy in the form of heat.
The amount of stomach acid neutralized by one antacid tablet varies depending on the brand and formulation of the tablet. On average, an antacid tablet can neutralize around 20-50 milliequivalents of stomach acid. It is important to follow the dosing instructions provided on the product packaging to ensure proper neutralization of stomach acid.
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.
Dissolving an antacid tablet in water can have an endothermic effect, meaning it absorbs heat from the surroundings and lowers the temperature of the water. This happens because the reaction between the antacid and water requires energy to break the bonds in the tablet and dissolve it.
crushed will react faster.
It can take a few minutes to fully dissolve an antacid tablet in salt water, depending on the size of the tablet and the concentration of salt in the water. The effervescence of the antacid tablet will help to speed up the dissolution process.

When you put an antacid tablet into vinegar, a chemical reaction occurs between the bicarbonate compounds in the antacid and the acetic acid in the vinegar. This reaction produces carbon dioxide gas, which creates bubbles and fizzing as the gas escapes. The reaction results in a neutralization process, reducing the acidity of the vinegar. Overall, you observe effervescence and a change in the solution's pH.
