Introduction
Discuss the experiment.
Pre-Requisites:
Acids, bases
Activity:
The effect anta-acid tablets have in our stomach with time, Pick all things in house and see the ingredients in them whether they contain any carbonates or bicarbonates. Now think do they have to react with any acid when you use them?
Real Life Question:
“Where does neutralization takes place when we consume a anta-acid tablet?”
