What would be the effect on the reaction rate for the following actions in the reaction between an antacid tablet and water: crushing the tablet, cooling the water, using many antacid tablets, adding a catalyst, and adding food coloring?

Crushing the antacid tablet and using many antacid tablets would increase reaction rate. Cooling the water during the reaction would decrease the reaction rate. Adding a catalyst to the water would also increase the reaction rate. Adding food coloring to the water would have no effect on the reaction rate.
Explanation: The surface area and concentration of reactants, and the presence of a catalyst can increase the reaction rate. Lowering the temperature of the reaction can decrease the reaction rate. Adding food coloring is unrelated to the chemical reaction and will not affect the reaction rate.
