What hapens if you acidentally taste battery acid?
A simple taste of a very, very small amount of acid (say you licked a finger that had a splash of acid on it by mistake) will not harm you in any way. However if you are splashed with acid you should wash with soap and lots of water to rinse it all off because if it left on your skin or clothes, it will burn you/them. Seek medical help as soon as possible
What do you do when you get Alkaline battery acid on skin?
Alkalinity is a measure of how well a solution neutralizes an acid compared to a carbonate or bicarbonate. A used alkaline battery is most likely very weak, so it wont burn your skin, just wash it off. If a new alkaline battery explodes or leaks onto your skin and it burns you, you should neutralize it with a acid such as vinegar. Then rinse the affected area and cover it.

What do you do if you spill a strong acid on your clothing?
The first concern is for the person, not the clothing.Take off the contaminated articles, rinse any acid off the skin immediately! If it got in your eyes, or if the skin is affected, get medical attention right away.Note that there are a few specialized acids, such as hydrofluoric acid, that can cause death within hours of exposure if you don't get medical attention. Know the hazards and properties of ANY chemicals you handle. Alwayswear the proper protective gear.The clothes are probably history, but you may be able to neutralize the acid by soaking them in a sink full of water with a few tablespoons of baking soda mixed in.
