Why do you chew the antacid tablet and not swallow it whole?
Chewing an antacid tablet allows it to break down more quickly and mix with saliva, facilitating faster relief from heartburn or indigestion. This enhances the tablet's effectiveness, as the active ingredients can neutralize stomach acid more efficiently. Additionally, chewing helps ensure even distribution of the antacid throughout the stomach when swallowed. Swallowing it whole may delay its action and reduce its effectiveness.

How do you control a chemical reaction?
Through temperature, concentration, surface area, and the use of catalists. Temperature - most reaction go faster with a higher temperature (not always the case) So you raise or lower the temperature to control the speed. Concentration - this can be calculated. The higher the concentration the faster the outcome and the more product you get. Catalists will always make it faster. More catalist, fater reaction. Surface Area-The more surface area, the faster the reaction. for example, if you break up an antacid tablet (alka seltzer) it will dissolve faster than a whole one because it has more surface area
