Acids are used two breack down food in your stomach and used for testing with experiment two see what will happen (strong acids are usually used to break down things).

Bases are like anti-acids they try to destroy acids,for example tums or pepto fismol. Bases destroy the heart burn which is caused from to much acid in your stomach and it goes to places example.your heart. You take the tums or pepto fismol which has a base in it and nuetralises each other.
