Acid - base neutralization reactions commonly occur in the human body producing what?
They can benefit the body. For example, you can take an indigestion tablet (alkali) to neutralise the acid in your stomach if you have too much. Also, by brushing your teeth you neutralise the acid in your mouth.
How much acid is needed to reduce the pH from 12 to 8?
To reduce the pH from 12 to 8, you would need to introduce an acid that is strong enough to lower the alkalinity by 4 units on the pH scale. The exact amount of acid required would depend on the specific properties of the acid and the volume of the solution being adjusted. A titration experiment would be a practical way to determine the amount of acid needed.
Which antacid is most effective in neutralizing acid?
Anything containing Magnesium carbonate. When a human suffers from acidosis/heartburn/reflux, the stomach is making too much acid. The stomach works at pH ~ 1 , and the acid is hydrochloric acid. Remember 'Acid + carbonate reacts to form salt plus water plus carbon dioxide. So anything containing magnesium CARBONATE will react with the excess stomach acid to neutralise it. MgCO3 + 2HCl = MgCl2 + H2O + CO2. The 'salt' is magnesium chloride ; harmless to humans. The water dilutes the contents of the stomach. The Carbon Dioxide gas given off is the 'burp'!!!!!! Magnesium carbonate is a horrible chalky taste, but proprietary medicines mask this taste by adding something 'sweeter/more palatable to the taste. NB Calcium Carbonate will do the same job, but it is chalk / limestone.
How much does hydrocloric acid weight?
The density of hydrochloric acid is 1,189 g/cm3 at 20 0C.

Why is magnesium hydroxide taken for stomach pain?
Stomach pain is often the result of too much acid in your stomach. The acid is called hydrochloric acid. Magnesium Hydroxide is a base (the opposite of an acid) and it can counter the effects of stomach acid, possibly relieving stomach pain. The acid and the base neutralise each other, producing neutral substances.
What substance is used to help indegestion?
Hydrochloric acid is used in the body to help digestion and kill bacteria. However too much acid can cause indigestion and we use indigestion remedies to neutralize excess acids. An indigestion remedy contains a base such as magnesium hydroxide, which reacts to form a neutral compound and raises the pH of the stomach.
What to do if too much base on the skin rather than acid?
I don't know how relevant this is, but in our chemistry labs we were told to wash off with copious amounts of water and our chemistry teacher said once to spill some dilute acid over it to neutralise it first. I stress dilute, e.g. ethanoic acid in vinegar when we were dealing with very powerful conc. chemicals.
How do you neutralise too much paprika in cooking?
Increase the starch; potato, noodle, rice, etc.
How does acids respond to Bases?
Acids react with bases in a neutralization reaction to form water and a salt. The acid donates a proton (H+) to the base, forming water, while the remaining ions from the acid and base combine to form a salt. The strength of the acid and base will determine the extent to which the reaction occurs.
How much heat (in kilocalories) is required to melt 1.95mol of solid acetic acid?
The heat of fusion for acetic acid is 20.5 kcal/mol. Therefore, the amount of heat required to melt 1.95 mol of solid acetic acid would be 1.95 mol x 20.5 kcal/mol = 40 kcal.
How do you neutralise the acid in teeth?
You needn't really worry all that much about it as saliva performs that function! Swishing with water or a fluorine rinse may help. Also eating a diary product such as cheese after something acidic will neutralize it in the teeth and also restore the calcium in the teeth.
How do you neutralise too much hot paprika?
Add starches or try a pinch of sugar. Some times the sweet will offset it.
How much acid does acid has?
ACID has 1.36 grams of acid in it
Why is folic acid good for you?
Folic acid is necessary for blood cells to form. It is also important in order for DNA synthesis to occur and it is required for protein metabolism (being able to process protein). Without folic acid you would very much die.
How much Acid is in vinger?
Vinegar is acetic acid, so pretty much all of it is acid.
