Answer:

They all react with acids.  

Explanation:

Thus, they decrease the concentration of stomach acid and provide heartburn relief.

The equations for the reactions are:

  1. Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl ⟶ MgCl₂ + 2H₂O
  2. Al(OH)₃ + 3HCl ⟶ AlCl₃ + 3H₂O
  3. CaCO₃ +2HCl ⟶ CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

Describe the relationship between volume and temperature of an ideal gas
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here, we want to describe the relationship between the volume and temperature of an ideal gas

This relationship is defined by Charles' law

From this law, we know that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature at a fixed pressure

What this means is that as long as the pressure remains unchanged, when the volume increases, the temperature increases, and when the volume decreases, the temperature decreases

These can be represented by the mathematical formula below:

\frac{V_1}{T_1}\text{ = }\frac{V_2}{T_2}
