when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
Acid =)
its an acid
is an acid
Vinegar in fact contains acetic acid and this reacts with the calcium carbonate making up the shell of the egg. This reaction gives off carbon dioxide so if you were paying attention you will have seen bubbles coming off the egg as soon as it was added to the vinegar. The membrane around the egg also becomes very rubbery during this soaking in vinegar. This occurs because the acid denatures the protein making up the egg white (albumin). Denaturation of proteins can occur through exposure to acids, bases or high temperature. This is what happens when you cook an egg- the clear egg white turns opaque and white as the protein chains become tangled due to the heat.
A base.
yes it is a acid
Flour is a base, not an acid.
a egg shell is white because of the atomic acid formed in the hen
It's a weak acid
The protein in the egg white gets digested.
you can't find egg white in your body unless you have just eaten an egg however you can find pepsin and hydrochloric acid in your stomach
No. Vinegar is an acid.
Put an egg in vinegar and the base calcium of the eggshell will be dissolved by the acid of the vinegar.
Cream of tartar helps to stabilize the egg white foam due to the charge that the proteins in the eggs hold without it.

An acid can turn into a base if you mix a much stronger base with it! That way the base acid overpowers the acid and makes the acid a base!
