The hypothesis is that all antacids will neutralize different amounts of acid but Milk of Magnesia will be able to neutralize the most acid.

You will fill 4 beakers with water, mix the recommended dosages of 4 types of antacids in their respective beakers, pour hydrochloric acid into a burette, and measure the amount of acid needed to neutralize the solution in each beaker.

You will need 4 beakers, 800ml water, 80ml hydrochloric acid, 4 brands of antacid – Milk of Magnesia, Gaviscon, Turns, Tagamet, 1 pH meter, 1 burette, 1 bowl and pistle, 1 glass stirrer, 1 measuring spoon, and 1 marker pen.

It was observed that Milk of Magnesia was able to neutralize the highest amount of acid and Gaviston neutralized the least amount. This experiment proves that Milk of Magnesia is the most effective antacid.

This science project is interesting because it tests the effectiveness of different antacids and helps us understand which one is the most effective.

What would happen if the experiment were to be continued until the pH level reached 3, the level in our stomach? The experiment can be repeated using other brands of antacids.

Hey there! Here are some awesome videos about this science project that we think you'll really like. They're not only super fun, but they'll also help you learn more about the science behind the project. So sit back, relax, and get ready to have some fun!!
