A body wash is considered a base. Based on its slippery and soapy texture you can tell that it is a basic. Also if you get any on your tongue it has a bitter taste which is another characteristic of a base.

During the acid-base titration it is permissible to use a wash bottle to wash down any material that may have splashed higher up this woudl appear to increase the volume of the acid in the flaks why w?

Using a wash bottle to wash down any material that may have splashed higher up does not increase the volume of acid in the flask because the volume of the acid in the flask is determined by the initial amount added for the titration. The wash bottle is just used for cleaning and does not add any additional acid to the system.

Which of the following best describes a bronsted lowry acid base reaction?

A Brønsted-Lowry acid-base reaction involves the transfer of a proton (H+) from the acid to the base. The acid donates a proton, while the base accepts a proton. This results in the formation of a conjugate base from the acid and a conjugate acid from the base.


How the buffer respond to acid and base compared to the liver?

Buffer systems in the body help maintain pH stability by absorbing excess acid or base to keep the body's pH within a narrow range. The liver plays a key role in maintaining acid-base balance by producing and excreting bicarbonate ions to help neutralize excess acid in the bloodstream. Buffer systems in the blood, such as bicarbonate/carbonic acid and protein buffers, work alongside the liver to regulate pH levels throughout the body.

What are the chemicals used in CIP in Biotech processwhat are there mode of action?

A basic cleaner is the most important CIP cleaning chemical, and is used for removing fats and proteins. The most common ones are Potassium Hydroxide and Sodium Hydroxide. A base wash is often followed by an acid wash to remove minerals and to neutralize the base (the acid washes away with water more easily than the base does). Common acid cleaners in the biotech industry include Phosphoric Acid, Acetic Acid, and Citric Acid.


Acid - base neutralization reactions commonly occur in the human body producing what?

They can benefit the body. For example, you can take an indigestion tablet (alkali) to neutralise the acid in your stomach if you have too much. Also, by brushing your teeth you neutralise the acid in your mouth.
