Effervescent Antacid Lab! Need Help! Fast!
OK! I have a class where I need to design an Effervescent Antacid Lab. (Alka-seltzer). The point is to find how many Moles of CO2 are produced when 325 mg of aspirin (C9H8O4) 1000 mg of citric acid (C6H8O7) and 1916 mg Sodium Bicarbonate (NaHCO3) react with excess H20.
So, To my knowledge, my (unbalanced) equation should look something like this.
C9H8O4 + C6H8O7 + NaHCO3 + H2O --> CO2 +??
For the sake of calculations, I know that Aspirin = 180.187 g/Mol Citric Acid = 192.124 g/mol and Sodium Bicarbonate = 84.01 g/mol
I appreciate any help I could get As Soon As Possible! Thank you! :)
