Develop an experiment to see how much anti-acid is needed to neutralize an acidic liquid. Just one liquid.
I had a plastic shot glass and filled it 3/4 of the way with lemon juice. I then added 1/4 of a tum each time until I got one whole tum inside the shot ( I crushed each piece before I put it in, dissolved much faster).
Amount of Tums- crushed after cut in ¼ ‘s
