How is acid in the stomach neutralised?

Acid in the stomach is actually not neutralized in the stomach, as you probably already know there is a layer of mucus inside your stomach to prevent the acid from digesting it. However, acid in the stomach (H+ ions) is neutralized in the duodenum with a base (HCO3- bicarbonate ion) that is found in the pancreatic fluid. The products of this chemical reaction are an undigestable salt and water.

Chemical compounds consists of bonds of different chemical elements. For example, table salt is sodium chloride, which is a compound that consists of sodium atoms with chloride atoms, the strong-smelling chemical you find in bleach. A chemical element, on the other hand, is a chemical made of a single atom. The atom has a shell that contains positive and negative charges, electrons, and other partials depending on the chemical properties. Extremely unstable elements emit a type of energy called radiation, usually in the form of ionizing radiation, the type you find released by an nuclear weapon.
