Because vinegar is acidic and water neutral, alka-seltzer will produce a better reaction in vinegar. This is because the alka-seltzer is basic with a ph of approx. 9.2 and vinegar is acidic with around 4 I think. Water has a ph of 7 making it neutral, and the higher the difference in numbers on ph scale, the bigger reaction(provided one is acidic(below 7) and one is basic(above 7)).

What happens when you put soda and vinegar together?
When soda (carbonated water) and vinegar are mixed together, a chemical reaction occurs that produces carbon dioxide gas. This reaction causes fizzing and bubbling, as the gas tries to escape from the liquid mixture. The reaction is a result of the acid in vinegar reacting with the carbon dioxide in the soda.
What is an effervescent reaction?
An effervescent reaction is a chemical reaction that produces bubbles of gas within a liquid. This is often seen when an acid reacts with a base to form water and a gas, such as in the reaction of vinegar with baking soda to produce carbon dioxide gas.
Why do chalk give out bubbles when you put in water?
Chalk is made of calcium carbonate which reacts with water to produce carbon dioxide gas. When chalk is placed in water, the reaction between calcium carbonate and water releases carbon dioxide as bubbles, causing the chalk to give out bubbles.
What gas do the bubbles contain in calcium into water?
When calcium reacts with water, it produces hydrogen gas as a byproduct. The reaction generates bubbles that contain this hydrogen gas, which is released as the calcium dissolves and reacts with the water. Additionally, the reaction also forms calcium hydroxide, but the bubbles themselves primarily consist of hydrogen.
What common household chemicals produce carbon dioxide?
the best would most likely be a fire extinguisher
Will alkaseltzer dissolve in water?
Yes.
How do you dissolve washing up liquid bubbles?
To dissolve washing up liquid bubbles, you can simply add a small amount of vinegar to the water. The vinegar helps break down the soap molecules, allowing the bubbles to disperse more easily. Alternatively, you can wait for the bubbles to naturally break down over time.
How can I test the effectiveness of baking powder?
To test the effectiveness of baking powder, you can mix a small amount with water or vinegar. If it fizzes and produces bubbles, it is still effective. If it does not react, it may have lost its potency and should be replaced.
What does hot water do when it is heated so much that it produces bubbles of steam?
Then it is boiling
Does bubbles occur in cold water when baking soda is added?
No, but it depends on what kind of bubbles you are trying to make. Soap bubbles aren't made out of water and baking soda. You can add baking soda to vinegar and create bubbles, as you've seen in fake volcanoes.
Why is it easier to float in baking soda and vinegar water?
The bubbles from the carbon dioxide reaction help you float
What happends when you put baking powder and water together?
It bubbles up, like baking soda and vinegar

How does Alkaseltzer react to water?
Sodium hydrogencarbonate and citric acid react.

How does mixing baking soda water vinegar and raisins make the raisins float up then sink?
raisins will float due there carbonarion and the raisins low density level in them.
Why is vinegar acidic?
Vinegar is an acid because it contains acetic acid, which produces hydrogen ions when dissolved in water. CH3CO2H --> CH3CO2- + H+
