Abstract
Alka-Seltzer® tablets fizzle furiously when dropped into water. The moment the tablet starts dissolving, a chemical reaction occurs that releases carbon dioxide gas. In this science
project, you can even measure how long and loudly your tablet fizzes using Google's Science Journal (https://goo.gl/wst48K) app. Do you think you can make Alka-Seltzer fizz faster or more
loudly by changing the temperature of the water? How big of a difference in the rate of a chemical reaction can temperature make?

Objective
To measure the effect of temperature on the rate of a chemical reaction.

Introduction
You may have seen a television commercial for Alka-Seltzer tablets, or heard one of their advertising slogans: "Plop, plop, fizz, fizz, oh what a relief it is!®" When you drop the tablets in
water, they make a lot of bubbles, like an extra-fizzy soda, as shown in Figure 1 below. And like a soda, the bubbles are carbon dioxide gas (CO2). However, with Alka-Seltzer, the CO2
is produced by a chemical reaction that occurs when the tablets dissolve in water.
 Figure 1. When an Alka-Seltzer tablet comes in contact with water, the tablet makes carbon dioxide gas through a chemical reaction

Alka-Seltzer is a medical drug that works as a pain reliever and an antacid (antacids help neutralize stomach acidity, such as heartburn). The pain reliever used is aspirin and the
antacid used is baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3). To take the tablets, they should be fully dissolved in a glass of water. When sodium bicarbonate dissolves in water, it

dissociates (splits apart) into sodium (Na+) and bicarbonate (HCO3-) ions. (An ion is a molecule that has a charge, either positive or negative.) The bicarbonate reacts with hydrogen

ions (H+) from citric acid (another ingredient in the tablets) to form carbon dioxide gas and water. In other words, carbon dioxide gas is a product of this reaction. The reaction is
described by Equation 1 below:

Equation 1.

So how is temperature related to this bicarbonate reaction? In order for the reaction shown above to occur, the bicarbonate ions have to come into contact with the hydrogen ions.
Molecules in a solution are in constant motion, and are constantly colliding with one another. The hydrogen and bicarbonate ions must collide at the right angle and with enough energy
for the reaction to occur. The temperature of a solution is a measure of the average motion (kinetic energy) of the molecules in the solution. The higher the temperature, the faster the
molecules are moving. What effect do you think temperature will have on the speed, or rate, of the bicarbonate reaction? In this chemistry science project you will find out for yourself
by plopping Alka-Seltzer tablets into water at different temperatures, and measuring how long it takes for the chemical reaction to go to completion. In addition, you can record the
sound of the Alka-Seltzer fizzle. Do you think it will fizz more loudly in hot or cold water?

Experimental Procedure
Note: In this science project, you will investigate how water temperature affects the dissolving time of an Alka-Seltzer tablet. You will use the Science Journal (https://goo.gl/wst48K) app to
record the fizzing sound of the Alka-Seltzer reaction in water and measure the time it takes for one Alka-Seltzer tablet to react completely in water. The app creates a graph that will not
only give you information about the reaction time, but will also allow you to assess how loud each reaction was based on the measured sound intensities. If you do not have a phone,
you can observe the reaction and use a stopwatch to time how long it takes for each tablet to dissolve.

1. Do your background research and make sure that you are familiar with the terms and concepts in the Background (http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project-
ideas/Chem_p027/chemistry/alka-seltzer-effect-of-temperature-on-reaction-time).

2. In your lab notebook, make a data table like Table 1. You will record your results in this data table.

Reaction Time Optional: Maximum Sound Intensity

Temperature (s) (dB)
Condition
(°C)
Trial #1 Trial #2 Trial #3 Average Trial #1 Trial #2 Trial #3 Average

Hot Tap Water

Cold Tap Water

Ice Water

Table 1. In your lab notebook, make a data table like this one. You will record your results in it.

3. Prepare a drinking glass so that it is marked at the 200 mL point. You will use the same glass for multiple trials, so it is convenient to mark the desired water level. Note: If your
glass fits more than 8 oz, make a mark about 1 inch below the rim.
a. Add 200 mL (a little less than 1 cup) of water to the drinking glass, or fill it up to about 1 inch below the rim.
b. Use a piece of masking tape on the outside of the glass to mark the water level, placing the tape with its top edge even with the water level in the glass, as shown in
Figure 2.
c. Note: You do not want to fill the glass completely full because the bicarbonate reaction produces bubbles that could splash out.
 Figure 2. Mark your glass on the outside with masking tape to indicate a water level up to about 1 inch below the rim.

4. You will fill the drinking glass with the same volume of water at three different temperatures: hot tap water, cold tap water, and ice water.
a. For the hot and cold tap water, run the water until the temperature stabilizes. Fill the glass with water to the level of the masking tape. Be careful when handling the hot
water.
b. For ice water, fill the glass about half full with ice cubes, then add cold tap water to a bit above the level of the masking tape. Stir for a minute or two so that the
temperature equilibrates. Once temperature has equilibrated, remove the ice cubes from the water's surface using a spoon or other utensil immediately before adding the
Alka-Seltzer tablet. (Pour out any extra water so that the water is up to the level of the masking tape.)
5. Prepare the drinking glass with one of the three temperatures as described in step 4. Then measure the reaction time for that temperature either by following option 1 (Science
Journal app), described in step 6, or option 2 (stopwatch), described in step 7.

6. Option 1: Using the Science Journal app

Science Journal is an app that lets you record data using sensors that are built into many smartphones, including a microphone that you can use to measure sound. To learn
how to use the Science Journal app and how to use the sound sensor, you can review the relevant tutorials on this Science Journal tutorial page (http://www.sciencebuddies.org/blog/science-
journal-app). In this project, you can use the app to record the fizzing sound that the Alka-Seltzer tablet makes while it dissolves in water and then use the data to determine the
reaction time and maximum sound intensity for each reaction.
a. Open the Science Journal app and start a new experiment. Choose the sound intensity sensor and make sure you know where the microphone is located on your phone
by doing a quick test to see if your sound measurement is working. For example, you could record yourself clapping or singing to check if the sensor behaves as
expected.
b. Once you have confirmed that the sensor works and you are familiar with the app, you can start with the experiment. You should do this experiment in a quiet
environment. The background reading of your sound meter when there is no noise in the room should be in the range between 20–40 decibels (dB).
c. Measure the temperature of the water (in Celsius [C]) in the first glass that you prepared, and record it in the data table in your lab notebook. Remove the thermometer
from the glass before continuing with the next step.
d. Put your phone in the waterproof plastic bag and make sure it is sealed well. You don't want it to get wet!
e. Place the second, same-sized glass, next to the glass filled with water. Lay your phone on top of the second glass so that the microphone (or sound sensor) is located
right at the center above the glass filled with water, as shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3. Place your phone on top of the glass filled with water so that the microphone (or sound sensor) is located right at the center above the solution.

f. Take one whole Alka-Seltzer tablet out of its package and hold it above the glass filled with water. In the app, start a new recording for your first experiment and press the
record button. Make sure to label your recording appropriately such as "hot water," "cold water," or "ice water." You can also rename your recording afterwards.
g. Once the recording starts, drop the tablet into the water. Note: You have to be very quiet during the experiment. Any sound that you make will be recorded and could
affect your data. Try to be as quiet as possible while you are recording your data!
h. You will immediately see and hear bubbles of CO2 streaming out from the tablet.
i. The tablet will gradually disintegrate. Observe the graph recorded by the app, and how the sound meter is responding to the fizzling while all of the solid white material
from the tablet disappears.
j. When the solid material has completely disappeared, and you see on the graph that the sound intensity has reached background levels again or does not change
anymore, wait 20 more seconds until all the bubbles have stopped forming, and stop recording your data.
k. Your data should look something like the graph in Figure 4. Your graph should show an increased sound intensity for as long as the Alka-Seltzer reaction took place. You
can ignore the spiky part at the beginning and end of the graph (this occurs when you tap the phone). The sound level of the reaction might be louder in the beginning
and decrease as the tablet gets smaller.
l. Drag the cursor along the graph to measure the time between the beginning of your reaction (when you dropped the tablet, and the sound intensity started to increase)
and the end of the reaction (when the sound intensity reached background levels again or does not change significantly anymore). For example, the reaction in Figure 4
started at 2.9 seconds and ended at about 55.0 seconds.
 Figure 4. This example data from the Science Journal app demonstrates how to measure the reaction time of the Alka-Seltzer tablet dissolving. The x-axes of the graphs
are time in minutes:seconds [min:s] and the y-axes shows sound intensity in decibels [dB].

m. Calculate the difference between these two points. In Figure 4 this would be 55.0 s - 2.9 s, which is 52.1 s. The result is the reaction time for your first trial. Record the
reaction time (in seconds [s]) in the data table in your lab notebook.
n. Tip: Be careful when opening the packets and handling the Alka-Seltzer tablets. The tablets are thin and brittle, so they break easily. If some of the tablets are whole, and
some are broken into many pieces, the separate trials will not be a fair test. You should only use whole tablets.

7. Option 2: Using the stopwatch

a. After filling the glass to the level of the masking tape, measure the temperature of the water (in Celsius [C]), and record it in the data table in your lab notebook.
b. Remove the thermometer from the glass before continuing with the next step.
c. Have your helper get ready with the stop watch, while you get ready with an Alka-Seltzer tablet. Have your helper count one–two–three. On three, the helper starts the
stop watch and you drop the tablet into the water.
d. You will immediately see bubbles of CO2 streaming out from the tablet.
e. The tablet will gradually disintegrate. Watch for all of the solid white material from the tablet to disappear.
f. When the solid material has completely disappeared, and the bubbles have stopped forming, say "Stop!" to have your helper stop the stopwatch.
g. Record the reaction time (in seconds [s]) in the data table in your lab notebook.
h. Tip: Be careful when opening the packets and handling the Alka-Seltzer tablets. The tablets are thin and brittle, so they break easily. If some of the tablets are whole, and
some are broken into many pieces, the separate trials will not be a fair test. You should only use whole tablets.
 8. Repeat step 6 or 7 two more times with the same temperature.
a. Repeating an experiment helps ensure that your results are accurate and reproducible.
9. Repeat steps 5 and 6 or 5 and 7 for each of the other temperatures.
a. When you are done, you should have done a total of three trials for each of the three temperatures.
10. Calculate the average reaction time for each of the three water temperatures. Record your results in the data table in your lab notebook.
11. Make a graph of the average reaction time, in seconds (on the y-axis), vs. water temperature, in degrees Celsius (on the x-axis).
12. How does reaction time change with temperature? Can you explain why this is?
a. Hint: If you are having trouble explaining your results, try re-reading the Introduction in the Background (http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/project-ideas/Chem_p027/chemistry/alka-
seltzer-effect-of-temperature-on-reaction-time).

13. If you chose to use the Science Journal app to record your data, look at the graphs for each water temperature again. Write down the maximum sound intensity that you
observed during the Alka-Seltzer reaction (not including the initial or end peaks) for each trial. You can get the number by dragging the cursor to the timepoint at which the sound
intensity is highest. In the example shown in Figure 4, this would be around 36 seconds with a sound intensity of about 40 decibels. Calculate the average for each of the three
water temperatures and record your results in the data table in your lab notebook.
14. Make a graph of the average maximum sound intensity, in decibels (on the y-axis), vs. water temperature, in degree Celsius (on the x-axis).
15. Which reaction was the loudest? Did you expect these results?

Variations
More advanced students should also calculate the standard deviation (http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/science-fair/variance-and-standard-deviation) of the reaction times for each
temperature.
Use the standard deviation to add error bars to your graph.
For example, say that the average reaction time for one temperature was 45 seconds, and the standard deviation was 5.2 seconds (these are made-up numbers). You
would graph the symbol for the data point at 45 seconds, and then draw short vertical bars above and below the symbol. Each vertical bar would have a length equivalent
to 5.2 seconds.
Error bars give your audience a measure of the variance (http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/science-fair/variance-and-standard-deviation) in your data.
Adult supervision required. Is reaction rate predictable over a larger temperature range? Water remains liquid above 0°C and below 100°C. Repeat the experiment at one or
more additional high temperatures to find out. Use Pyrex glass for containing water heated on the stove or in the microwave, and use appropriate care (e.g. wear hot mitts and
safety goggles) when handling hot water. A standard candy thermometer should be able to measure the temperatures in this higher range.
You could turn the bicarbonate reaction into a home-made lava lamp. To do this, you will want to use a tall jar or empty clear plastic 1-liter or 2-liter bottle, fill it with 2 to 5
centimeters (cm) of water, add 5 drops of food coloring, and then fill it at least three-quarters full with vegetable oil. You could repeat the science project using your home-made
lava lamp at a cold and a hot temperature. To do this, you will need to figure out a way to make the prepared bottle hot or cold. (For example, to make it hot you could let it sit in
a large bowl of hot water, and to make it cold you could store it in a refrigerator or freezer.) You will also want to use one-quarter of an Alka-Seltzer tablet at a time (instead of a
whole tablet). How does the bicarbonate reaction look and function in the home-made lava lamp?
In this science project you observed the reaction mixture and watched as the tablets disappeared and formed gas bubbles. For more advanced versions of this experiment, you
can build a simple apparatus so that you can measure the volume of the gas produced over time. Because you will be able to collect data at multiple time points, you get
information about how the reaction rate changes over time. For more advanced versions of measuring the reaction rate like this, see these Science Buddies projects:

Does changing the particle size of the reactants have as big an effect on reaction time as changing the temperature of the water does? For a science project that investigates
