Dock leaves are alkaline - they neutralise the formic acid in nettle stings
yes
Strong Acid ; pH = 1-3 Weak acid ; pH = 4-6 Neutral ; pH 7 Weak alkali ; pH = 8 -10 ( The answer) Strong Alkali ; pH = 11- 14
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. Slaked lime is often used to neutralise the solution as it is an alkali.
There are many substances that are alkaline such as soap, toothpaste, dock leaves and detergents. Also metal hydroxides are alkaline (NaOH, KOH, Ca(OH)2, etc.).
On the plasma membrane of their target cells.
It is not used for this.A hydrometer is an instrument used to measure the specific gravity (or relative density) of liquids, NOT rock.To measure the density of a rock you weigh a piece of it in air, then measure the volume of water it displaces in a measuring jug.Density = mass/volume.
They can help because nettles are fillet with acids and will sting that acid into you so if you rub a Dock leaf on it then it will get better because a dock leaf is filled with an alkali so acid and alkalis togeter become netural so it will get rid of the acids sting
You should put dock leaves on the sting. Dock leaves are alkaline and nettle stings are acid. Rubbing alkaline and acid together cause each one to water down, this is called neutralization.

A stinging nettle is full of Acid and the sting from the nettle is the Acid in or on your skin. A "Dock" leaf as its called has Alkaline inside so as Science dictates Alkaline neutralises acid. Hope this answers your question for you.
Dock leaves sooth nettle stings because dock leaves don't like nettles very mych!
Stinging NettleA Stinging Nettle is an alkali so you should Use a dock leaf, it grows next to a stinging nettle. Just rub it on the place you got stung. :)
Spit on a dock leaf and place it on area you were stung!
Yes, dock weed is toxic. The plant in question (Rumex spp) maintains levels of oxalic acid within the leaves. Contact with or ingestion of oxalic acid pesters the mucous membranes in tissues and upper respiratory tracts and will burn the eyes and skin.

A dock is a plant with large soft green leaves.
