How many tums tablets each 250mg calcium carbonate would it take to neutralize a quart a vinegar 0.83MM acetic acid?

Are tums an acid or alkali?
Alkaline and act as antacids. TUMS is an antacid made of sucrose (sugar) and calcium carbonate. It provides relief from acid indigestion, heartburn, and indigestion ("sour stomach") and is considered a calcium supplement.
Is Nexium a base or a acid?
It is a base because it reduces the acid in your stomach. If it was an acid it would decrease the pH in your stomach which is bad because the lower the pH the stronger the acid. Nexium's job is to correct the high acidity in your stomach that is causing you discomfort. Acids -coffee - tea - soda base -Nexium -tums
If stomach acid has a PH of 1 and a person took a tums tablet which raised the PH to 3 how much was the increase in PH?
the increase in PH = 3 - 1 = 2
Is tums a compound?
'Tums' is a heterogenous mixture. The different ingredients are usually right on the box.
Are Tums an acid or a base?
Tums is a base. because if it was an acid , it wouldn;t help acid reflux. Tums is not an acid or a base, its main ingredient, calcium carbonate is a salt. The calcium carbonate reacts with the hydrochloric acid in your stomach to form Calcium Chloride, water and Carbon Dioxide gas. 2(HCl) + CaCO3 --> CACl2 + H2O + CO2
If you take tums for your acid reflux if you smoke weed will it have a bad reaction?
no. the tums will settle your stomach but the marijuana will make you want to eat. if you have the need to take tums then when you smoke be sure not to eat things that will give you heart burn or acid reflux
What do you call the two chemicals that react together in antacid tablets?
Calcium Hydroxide (Alkali in the stomach) and Gastric Acid (in the stomach)
How does tums help with indigestion or heartburn?
Why do TUMS help you when you have heartburn? Heartburn is caused by an excessive amount of hydrochloric acid in your stomach. It helps because the reactant calcium carbonate is a base while hydrochloric acid is an acid. Calcium carbonate neutralizes the hydrochloric acid, when they react a salt is produced. When any carbonate and acid react carbon dioxide is released. The last product that was produced was water. Salt, carbon dioxide, and water do not irritate your stomach.
What else is in common with calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid?
most pool/spa chemicals calcium carbonate :is basically tums or any other ant-acid and as for the hydrachloric acid : chlorinated water (in concentrate)
Is tums or acid base?
Tums is an antacid, basic.
What reaction occurs when acid meets antacid in the stomach?
There are many different types of antacids, each with a slightly different mechanism of action. All of these neutralize stomach acid (HCl) through some reaction. The Example below uses calcium carbonate, which is used in the popular antacid "Tums". 2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2 A way to envision this reaction is that the hydrochloric acid "eats away" at the calcium carbonate, forming CaCl2, an ionic species, and H2CO3 (carbonic acid) which is not stable at standard conditions. This rapidly decays to H2O and CO2 at normal pressures (like when you open a can of soda), which is why these are written on the products side of the reaction.

Can you take methadone and tums?
Yes, tums lower acid in your stomach, in which there for allows methadone to absorb completely
Are Tums the best antacid?
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.
What is the scientific name for tums?
Tums is an antacid that is manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline. It is available over the counter for the treatment of acid indigestion and heartburn. The scientific name for Tums is calcium carbonate antacid.
Home remedies acid reflux?
Tums. Not a real home remedy, but pop a handful of fruit flavored tums and it will be gone instantly.
