Alka-Seltzer includes aspirin and sodium bicarbonate in its ingredients. A stomach feels upset due to acid. Alka-Seltzer works as a base to neutralize the acid.
Alka Seltzer tablets contain citric acid and sodium bicarbonate, which react to produce carbon dioxide gas in an acid-base neutralization reaction. In a low pH environment, the citric acid dissolves more readily, leading to faster reaction between the acid and the sodium bicarbonate, resulting in quicker dissolution of the tablet.

The sugar and flavoring in Kool-Aid may slightly affect the dissolution process, but the Alka-Seltzer will still dissolve effectively.
When Alka-Seltzer tablets are put in water, they dissolve and release citric acid and sodium bicarbonate. The citric acid reacts with the sodium bicarbonate to produce carbon dioxide gas, causing the tablet to fizz and dissolve quickly. This reaction helps to relieve indigestion and heartburn.
Yes, Alka-Seltzer tablets fizz when they are dissolved in water. This fizzing occurs due to a chemical reaction between the sodium bicarbonate and citric acid in the tablets, producing carbon dioxide gas. The effervescence helps to mix the active ingredients and can aid in the relief of heartburn or indigestion.
