How are the bases held together in a double helix?
Nitrogenous bases.That would be hydrogen bonds.

What is the name of a weak acid or weak base that can react with strong acids or strong bases to keep the pH within particular range?
hydrogen ions
Do buffers react to acids and bases to keep pH in a?
Buffers are used to maintain the pH constant.
What mixtures that can react with acids or bases to keep the pH within a particular range?
These substances are called buffers.
What is the significance of acid and bases in your industry?
Acids and bases are chemical substances that release ions when dissolved in water. Acids are compounds that release positive hydrogen ions in water. Bases release hydroxide ions, which are compounds made of an oxygen and a hydrogen. Acids and bases are used around the house for cleaning, but the levels of acids and bases in the body are also important. The body needs a neutral pH and controls the amounts of acids and bases through processes involving the kidneys, lungs and blood. Acids and bases are found in foods, the environment and in chemicals including pharmaceuticals. The pH levels in the blood are required to stay neutral, which is at a level of 7. When a dieter eats acidic foods, the body uses a buffering system to neutralize the positive ions released from the acids. Conversely, bases are also controlled to keep the body from becoming too alkaline.
Why a mixture of ch3cooh and ch3coona can act as a buffer while a mixture of hcl and nacl can not?
Buffers are made out of what are called weak acids or weak bases. Mixtures of CH3COOH and CH3COONa can act as buffers because they don't break apart completely in solution like HCl and NaCl. As the CH3COOH and CH3COONa are in solution they keep the pH constant by either donating or accepting protons because they don't act like strong acids or bases. HCl is known as a strong acid where the hydrogen disassociates completely from the chloride. NaCl is not a buffer because it dissolves completely as welll
Are strong acids corrosive?
Yes but all acids are weak or strong. But keep in mind that they are not dangerous to anyone not even the strongest of them example if a person gets strong acid and applies it on their arm it would take 8 hours for it to destroy the skin only with the rest of,the arm intact. So they are corrosive it just would take a long time for it to really destroy another object. If you wish think about your stomach it contains the second to strongest type of acid in the Ph scale and when you regurgitate you can not see any signs of you floor melting or burned.
Why do bases and acids have to be kept in a safe place?
If you have children that like to be nosy you want to keep it in a high safe place so children dont get it in their eyes etc.

Nutrients that keep you muscles strong?
Amino acids are the building blocks of life, so protein blends contain many of the essential amino acids needed for muscle growth. I would recommend drinking a protein shake every day.
What is made of amino acids and work to keep cells functioning properly?
Proteins are made of amino acids, and work to keep cells functioning.
Differece between a strong and weak base?
Strong bases will almost completely disassociate into their component ions, e.g. NaOH -> Na+ + OH- Weak bases will only disassociate a small amount, so when writing equations, we keep the formula the same. Sr(OH)2, not Sr+2 + 2OH-
