When calcium tablets react with water, they undergo a chemical reaction in which hydrogen gas is produced. This gas forms bubbles that you see when the tablet dissolves in water. The reaction between calcium and water releases hydrogen gas as a byproduct, causing the bubbling effect.

When we add calcium tablets in water they react to produce bubbles. Why does this happen?

"Calcium tablets" is a bit vague. If you put calcium metal in water it will form bubbles as the calcium reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas (the bubbles). If you put tablets of some calcium salt in water ... you'd need to be more specific about what it is for us to answer the question.


Why does antacid fizz in water?

Antacid tablets contain ingredients such as sodium bicarbonate, which react with water to produce carbon dioxide gas. This gas creates fizzing as bubbles are released, making the tablet dissolve and neutralize excess stomach acid.


Would calcium nitrate and magnesium react?

Calcium nitrate and magnesium will not react since calcium is more reactive than magnesium and so, magnesium does not displace calcium (See Reactivity Series). However, if Calcium nitrate is in aqueous solution (dissolved in water), some bubbles may be seen when Magnesium is added to it, since the Magnesium would be reacting with the water and producing hydrogen bubbles.


Why does alka selzer fizz in a lava lamp?

Alka-Seltzer tablets contain baking soda and citric acid. When dissolved in water, the two substances react to produce carbon dioxide gas, which creates bubbles and fizz. In a lava lamp, the bubbling action from the Alka-Seltzer tablet creates movement in the colored wax, resembling the flow of lava.


When calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid react bubbles form. How do you know a reaction occurred?

You can tell that a reaction occurred because you observed the formation of bubbles, which indicates the release of a gas (carbon dioxide) as a product of the reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. The appearance of bubbles is a clear sign of a chemical change taking place.


What mineral is colorless and powdered that form bubbles with acid?

halite because the molecules within it react with the acid causing a bubbling reaction also Calcite and Dolomite when it is powered


What gas do Alka Seltzer tablets give off?

They give off carbon dioxide.


Where do bubble come from in tablets?

Bubbles in tablets typically originate from the manufacturing process, particularly during the mixing, granulation, or compression stages. Air can be trapped in the material, or ingredients may react with moisture or other components, producing gas. Additionally, improper drying or storage conditions can lead to moisture absorption, which can also create bubbles. These bubbles can affect the tablet's appearance, stability, and dissolution characteristics.


Anti-acid indigestion tablets contain magnesium hydroxide or calcium carbonate. How do they work?

Both of these substances are alkaline and they react with excess acid in the stomach to produce a Calcium or Magnesium salt solution and Carbon dioxide gas.


Will calcium react with calcium chloride?

no


What do you call the two chemicals that react together in antacid tablets?

The two chemicals that react in antacid tablets are typically aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide. These chemicals help to neutralize stomach acid and provide relief from heartburn and indigestion.


When acids react with carbonates a gas called carbon dioxide is giving off?

Yes. For instance, combining hydrochloric acid and calcium carbonate creates calcium chloride, water, and carbon dioxide gas.
