The purpose of this study was to determine which way that an Alka-Seltzer tablet creates the most gas. There are many experiments similar to this one such as measuring how much time it took for the Alka-Seltzer tablet to dissolve in different amounts and different types of liquids. An Alka-Seltzer tablet was put into different amounts of water to see how much gas was produced by measuring the diameter of the balloon. The Alka-Seltzer tablet created the most gas in less water and the hypothesis was incorrect. This is because the less water there is this means that there is less water for the gas to travel through because the Alka-Seltzer tablet sinks to the bottom.
 * ABSTRACT **

An improvement that may be helpful, and make the experiment more exciting would to try different sizes of balloons, different amounts of Alka-Seltzer tablets and even going farther and use more water with the first experiment to find even farther. Something that could improve the last experiment would be to use a smaller car and poke a small hole in the balloon which can then be stuck into a tube and see how far the car goes with air coming out of the back.
