The mixture inside the stomach is called chyme - a composite of acid, enzymes, and the food (bolus) that was consumed. The enzymes released in the stomach are called proteases, such as pepsin, which breaks down proteins into dipeptides and amino acids. The acid is hydrochloric acid created when parietal cells produce hydrogen and chlorine ions, making the solution in the stomach a pH of 1.5-2, low enough to dissolve iron nails.
