What are the Applications of neutralization?

you can use neutralisation for all diffrent types of things but scienctists atend to use it the most for experriments!you can also use it in:agriculture, as soils often contain acidic solutions and plants usually grow best when the soil is slightly alkaline.In medicine, as your blood has a pH of 7.3 and medicine injections must be exactly the same pH. If someone blood is changed by one pH they would die.In digestion, as the stomach is acidic, pH 1 or 2. If we wanted to neutralise the acidity we could swallow an alkaline substance such as sodium bicarbonate.could swallow an alkaline substance such as sodium bicarbonate.To neutralise bee stings, as bee stings are acidic and can be neutralised using an alkali such as bicarbonate of soda, which would calm the irritation.To neutralise wasp stings, as wasp stings are alkaline and can be neutralised using an acid such as vinegar, which would calm the irritation.To neutralise waste from factories, as if this acidic solution is not treated and ends up in the river it could kill fish.

Do bee stings or wasp bites hurt more?

Bee stings don't nessicarily kill but if your allergic to bee's then you could get sick from it sting. Kiler bees can kill. You can also die from bee stings if you are stung by a large amount.IN ADDITION:Yes. It kills the bee. This is because a honey bee has a barbed stinger and when it pulls away, it rips out its abdomen and later dies. A wasp has a shiny, smooth stinger and can sting you multiple times and not die from it. As far as people goes. Yes too, but the odds are slim. If you are allergic to the bee or wasp sting, it can cause an anaphalactic shock. This causes the persons airway to become restricted and makes breathing more and more difficult. You could suffocate, causing death. People who are alergic to bee and wasp stings should get whats called an EPI-pin. Its a single prefilled, spring loaded dose of Epinephrine. You just push it against your skin and it injects you. This can save your life. People who encounter aggressive wasps like hornets and jellow jackets are more likely to get stung multiple times and the more stings received, the greater chance of anaphalaxis.


How do you know if you got stung by a bee or wasp?

If it's a bee, the stinger is barbed and thus will usually remain in the victim, so you'll rarely see more than one sting per bee. Wasp stings are generally less powerful, and the stingers are smooth, so they can retract without losing the stinger. Thus multiple stings are possible.

How long does it take for a bee to die after stinging someone?

People don't usually die after being stung by a bee. If bee stings were fatal I would be dead quite a few times over by now.A small number of people are highly allergic to bee venom, and in the worst case the reaction can cause anaphylactic shock which can be fatal if not treated immediately.If, on the other hand, you mean how long does it take the bee to die then if she loses her sting this can take anything from a couple of hours up to about 24 hours.A bee that doesn't lose her sting won't die for any reason to do with having stung.
