Properties of Antacids
Product Code : LSK-CL-10250
Properties of Antacids (SKU LSK-CL-10250) is a class investigation kit in which students measure how fast five over-the-counter antacids neutralise acid and compare the buffering ability of three calcium carbonate based products. It suits school lessons on acids, bases and neutralisation. Science Lab Supplies dispatches the kit from Ambala, India, and can quote it for a single class, a whole school, a tender contractor or a distributor of school chemistry lab equipment in India.
Specifications
The table breaks the antacid kit down item by item. In short, it holds five coded antacid samples in tablet and liquid form, 1M hydrochloric acid, two indicator solutions, indicator strips, graduated plastic pipettes and disposable medicine cups, in quantities that serve fifteen student groups.

Applications and Experiments for the Properties of Antacids Kit
The kit teaches neutralisation in an everyday context: students add each antacid to hydrochloric acid, follow the indicator colour and compare how much acid every product neutralises and how quickly. It also introduces the common active ingredients in over-the-counter antacids and links acid-base theory to indigestion remedies.
- School science: acids, bases, salts and neutralisation, with extra pH checks on Universal Ph Indicator paper (pH 0–14).
- Class 10 chemistry: bases such as antacids used against excess stomach acid.
- Senior secondary chemistry: active ingredients of antacids and the idea of a buffer, with acid volumes measured using Calibrated Plastic Droppers of 0.5, 1 or 5 ml.
Standard Scope of Supply
One kit holds the five antacid samples, the 1M hydrochloric acid, universal indicator, bromothymol blue, indicator strips, pipettes and medicine cups set out in the table, in quantities for fifteen groups. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Schools can ask for one kit or several kits for parallel classes. Every quotation lists packing, delivery time and price for the quantity requested, and other acid-base items can be added to it, as Science Lab Supplies also acts as a laboratory chemicals supplier in India.
Science Lab Supplies holds an Importer-Exporter Code as a registered exporter, so it can ship to buyers in Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana and Ethiopia. Teachers can raise a question on the contact page, gather the kit and its companion reagents in the enquiry cart, or route a formal bid through the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many students can use one Properties of Antacids kit?
One kit contains enough materials for fifteen groups, so a normal class can work in small teams, with each team testing all five antacid samples against the same 1M hydrochloric acid.
Are the antacid samples included?
Yes. All five antacids come in the kit as coded products numbered 1 to 5, in tablet and liquid form, so the school does not need to buy commercial antacids separately.
Who supplies the Properties of Antacids kit?
Science Lab Supplies, based in Ambala, India, quotes and dispatches this kit. It can price one kit for a single class, several kits for parallel sections, or a larger lot for a tender contractor or distributor.
What safety precautions does the activity need?
Students handle 1M hydrochloric acid, which is corrosive, so eye protection and adult supervision are needed. The tablets and liquid are test samples and must never be eaten or drunk.
