Alka-Seltzer is an antacid that is dissolved in water before use. For an experiment, three tablets of Alka-Seltzer are dissolved in three beakers, each containing 50-ml of water: beaker A's water is 10° C; beaker B's water is 50° C; and beaker C's water is 80° C. Which answer correctly orders the reaction rates of the three beakers from fastest to slowest reaction?

Beaker A Beaker B Beaker C
Beaker C Beaker B Beaker A
Beaker B Beaker A Beaker C
Beaker A = Beaker B = Beaker C

Question

Alka-Seltzer is an antacid that is dissolved in water before use.

Which answer correctly orders the reaction rates of the three beakers from fastest to slowest reaction?
 	
	Beaker A > Beaker B > Beaker C
	Beaker C > Beaker B > Beaker A
	Beaker B > Beaker A > Beaker C
	Beaker A = Beaker B = Beaker C

@Abhisar how do i do this?

abhisar · Answer

I am not sure about this one but i think it will be B. Since increased temperature increases the rate of reaction due to increase in the kinetic energy of particles.

80>50>10 ? i guess it makes sense

abhisar · Answer

yes, so option B

superhelp101 · Answer
