 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I would like to express my special thanks of gratitude

to my teacher Mr. Shouri Banerjee as well as
principal Ms. Anindita Home Choudhury who gave me
the golden opportunity to do this wonderful project
which also helped me in doing alot of research and
came to know about many new things. Iam thankful
to them.

 PROCEDURE

Step 1: Preparation of 1 litre of approximately N/10 solution of HCI by

diluting 10 mlHCI acid to 1 litre of water

Step 2: Preparation of 1 litre of approximately N/10 NaOH solution by

dissolving 4 grams of NaOH to make 14 litres of solution.

Step 3: Preparation of Na,CO3 solution by weighing exactly 1.325 grams of

anhydrous Na,CO3 and then dissolving it in water to prepare exactly 0.25
litres of 250 ml of Na2CO3 solution.

Step 4: Standardization of NaOH by titrating it against the standardized

HCI solution using phenolphthalein as indicator. The titration is to be
stopped once the pink colour of the solution disappears.

Step 5: Powdering the four antacid samples and weighing 1gram of each.

Step 6: Addition of 25 ml of standardized HCI to each of the weighted

samples taken in conical flasks. The acid is taken in slight excess so that it
neutralises all the basic character of the tablet powder.

Step 7: Addition of few drops of phenolphthalein indicator and the

warmingof the flask over a Bunsen Burner till most of the acid dissolves.

Step 8: Filtration of the insoluble material.

Step 9 : Titration of the solution against standardized NaOH solution till
permanent pink tinge is obtained.

Applying Normality equation:

NiV1 = NV2
(acid) (base)

N1 x 17 =0.1 x 20

Normality of HCI, NË = 2/17 = 0.11 = 0.1 (approx.)

 THEORY

1.ENO

Eno is an over-the-counter antacid brand

sk
produced by Glaxo Smith Kline. It is basically
an antacid combination that acts locally in FASTRELIEFFROMACIDITTY

the stomach.
ENO FruitSall
TS TO SECONDS
Composition: WORK

LEMON
1FLAVOUR

oCitric acid anhydrous

o Sodium bicarbonate
o Sodium carbonate anhydrous

Reported side effects include restlessness, increase thirst,

reduced salivation, headache, possible hypotension and
tachycardia.

Eno claims to provide fast relief from acidity in just 6 seconds. It

rapidly works on 6 signs of acidity like sour taste in mouth,
burning sensation in throat, chest and stomach, stomach
discomfort and heaviness.
 2. DIGENE

Digene belongs to a group of

medicinescalled ANTACID ANTIGAS TABLTC k
DIGENE
antacids,manufactured byABBOTT
INDIA LTD. It is used to treat
acidity, heartburn, indigestion,
gastritis (inflammation of the
stomach) and stomach upset. It is
also known to provide quick and Abho

effective relief fromgas troubles

such as bloating and belching. It
works by neutralizing the stomach acid in
the body.

Composition:
oMagnesium Hydroxide
o Simethicone
o Magnesium Aluminium Silicate Hydrate
oDried Aluminium Hydroxide Gel

Reported side effects include nausea, vomiting, headache,

stomach, pain, watery stools, and dizziness.
Digene is also sugar-free and is generally well tolerated.
Simethicone helps breakup gas bubbles in the gut. Aluminium
andmagnesium antacids work quickly to lower the acid in the
stomach. Magnesium Hydroxide is laxative that increases water in
the intestine and reduced stomach acid. This medication works
 only onexisting acid in the stomach. It does not prevent acid
production.

ANALYSIS OF ANTACIDS

oWeight of antacid tablet powder =1 gram

o Volume of HClsolution added =60ml

Volume of sample solution taken for titration = 40 ml

>Observation:
I. 1gram of ENO required 29 ml of NaOH to titrate it
completely.
II. 1 gram of Digene required 9 ml of NaOH to titrate it
completely.
IlII. 1gram of Omez required 24 ml of NaOH to titrate it
completely.
IV. 1gram of Gelusil required 22 ml of NaOH to titrate it
completely.

>Result:
Based on the hypothesis of the experiment, the antacid
 which requires the least amount of NaOH is the best
antacid.
S.No Antacid Volume of NaOH used for
neutralizing unused HCI
1 Eno 29
2 Digene 9
3 Omez 24
4 Gelusin 22

Therefore,the order of strength of the antacids is:

Digene > Gelusil > Omez > ENO
