The sting of a scorpion is acidic. The antidote used to treat scorpion bites in animals is generally an alkaline solution.
Scorpion stings contain acids, therefore they can be neutralised by alkalis in the neutralisation reaction where: acid + alkali = salt + water

Scorpions do not eat people but they will sting them if they are provoked or threatened. There are about 2,000 species of scorpions in the world. Only about 40 of them can deliver a sting that can be lethal.
Scorpions do not bite, they sting.
in case they need to sting something
No they are not. Most will cause a localized reaction but some can cause death.
That depends on the species of scorpian. Scorpian stings can range from a small painful sting, like a bee sting, to a deadly sting. Most scorpians do not possess venom strong enough to kill an adult, but of course, it depends on the species of scorpian. There are scorpians that can inflict a deadly sting. Some zoologists say that the smaller a scorpians pinchers are, the more potent their venom is.
a nettle sting is acid but a doc leaf is alkali which is why it neutralises it

A bee's sting is acidic.

A wasp sting is a base because it is alkali.
A bee's sting is mostly Formic Acid.
A bee sting is acidic and a wasp sting is alkaline so that makes them have acid and alkali in them....!
