Calcium Hydroxide (Alkali in the stomach) and Gastric Acid (in the stomach)
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
its an acid
Acid =)
is an acid
Neutraliztion; it occurs when an acid and a base are joined.
Tums is a base. because if it was an acid , it wouldn;t help acid reflux. Tums is not an acid or a base, its main ingredient, calcium carbonate is a salt. The calcium carbonate reacts with the hydrochloric acid in your stomach to form Calcium Chloride, water and Carbon Dioxide gas. 2(HCl) + CaCO3 --> CACl2 + H2O + CO2
Base neutralizes acid. So, for stomach acid, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) or antacids (such as Rolaids or Tums) which are made up of calcium carbonate, these base compounds neutralize acid.
It is a base because it reduces the acid in your stomach. If it was an acid it would decrease the pH in your stomach which is bad because the lower the pH the stronger the acid. Nexium's job is to correct the high acidity in your stomach that is causing you discomfort. Acids -coffee - tea - soda base -Nexium -tums
No! TUMS are good BUT Rolaids dissolve easier and are quicker to neutralize acid. ***Personally neither of them are the best to me. They both have calcium. Too much calcium ends up causing acid reflux, which means you have to pop another tums or rolaids again. I think Gingera is the best antacid. Why? because it's all natural. It's effervescent and all you need to do is take it once for your indigestion or nausea to vanish.
Yes, tums lower acid in your stomach, in which there for allows methadone to absorb completely
no. the tums will settle your stomach but the marijuana will make you want to eat. if you have the need to take tums then when you smoke be sure not to eat things that will give you heart burn or acid reflux
Tums is an antacid that is manufactured by GlaxoSmithKline. It is available over the counter for the treatment of acid indigestion and heartburn. The scientific name for Tums is calcium carbonate antacid.
Tums. Not a real home remedy, but pop a handful of fruit flavored tums and it will be gone instantly.
It is used to neutralize the stomach because alka seltzer is a acid and when a acid and base are used together they neutralize each other.

Take a base to combat the citric acid. Bases ie. Tums, baking soda, etc.
