Investigation of Hydrochloric Acid with Indigestion Tablet
Introduction
In this coursework I will be talking about the experiments, which I have done over two weeks. This gave different results by using different concentrations of hydrochloric acids (HCl) and indigestion relief tablet. I will also mention the time which was taken in the experiment, to see how fast the hydrochloric acid took with indigestion tablet with different concentrations. Indigestion tablets are alkali and they are used for to neutralise the excess acid in the stomach.
Indigestion Tablet
Indigestion is caused by excess acid in the stomach. The tablets neutralise some of this
Acid and this is known as ‘Neutralization’ since it neutralizes the acid. In this experiment the amount of acid neutralised by one tablet is found. This may be considered a direct measurement of the effectiveness of the tablet.
Requirements for the experiment:-[pic]
• Indigestion Tablets Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) • Gas Jar • Clamp Stand • Hydrochloric Acid (HCL) solutions labelled 20, 30, 40, 50 60gdm-3 ( these can be 0.50, 0.75, 1.00, 1.25,1.50 mol dm-3) • Trough or container • Measuring cylinder • Timer. • Bung • Delivery Tube • Conical Flask 50 cm3
Indigestion Tablets
An indigestion relief tablets alkali in solution, so that it can easily neutralize the excess hydrochloric acid in the stomach. The indigestion tablets to be used in the experiment was purchased from Super Drug
Gas Jar
A gas jar is a straight and thin cylindrical tube with ml units. This is used to collect gas or generate in the laboratory. In my investigation gas jar will be used to collect and measure the amount of carbon dioxide gas released during the investigation.

Clamp stand is really useful and it gets attached to the burette or any flask and it allows it to stay in its position. Otherwise, there’s a possibility of dispensing more amount of liquid than its normal measurements. In my
