Alka Seltzer tablet contains "Calcium carbonate" that reduces the amount of acid in the stomach. Thus a person is preferred to take Alka seltzer for heartburn.
Explanation:
Heartburn is a problem created by acid reflux and it causes pain in the lower part of the stomach. It affects the food pipe that carries food to the stomach.
Symptoms of heartburn can cause a salty taste of fluid in the throat region and it causes burning pain in the breast bone. Antacids are generally preferred for the treatment of acid reflux as it reduces the acidity and amount of acid content in the stomach.
Alka-Seltzer is the most common tablet preferred for heartburn problems. This tablet dilutes the acid content and thereby reduces the pain in the stomach.

Explanation:
This question is obviously supposed to be a multiple choice question but the options are missing.
However, the question intends to test the student's knowledge about combustion of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are mostly composed of hydrocarbons of different chain lengths.
The longer the chain length, the greater the energy released when the compound is burnt since there are more energy stored in its bonds.
Hence, the correct answer to this question will be the option that contains the greatest number of C-C and C-H bonds.
