Mass Lab Station #6

This lab activity was to figure out if the mass of water would change after putting an alka seltzer tablet in there and letting it dissolve.
Claim: I believe that the mass would change. I believe this because you are adding another object into the water. The alka seltzer has mass on it own so it will just add that to the water when it is placed in there.
Evidence: After measuring the mass of the water in the container by itself, then adding the tablet and letting it dissolve we discovered there is change. There was a change because you are adding another object into the water.
Reasoning:The reasoning for why the mass changes almost explains itself. If you add another object to something else that has its own mass, then it will add mass to the other object.
