Stomach acid can corrode and break down a variety of materials, but it is most effective in breaking down organic materials like food, bacteria, and viruses. Stronger materials like metals and plastics may be resistant to stomach acid for a short time, but prolonged exposure can lead to their breakdown as well.
HCl or Hydrochloric acid (located in stomach).
The strongest acid that is known to exist is fluoroantimonic acid, HSbF6. This superacid is 1023 times more acidic than H3O+(the strongest acid that can exist in water) and will protonate even extremely weak bases (such as alkanes).
Indigestion tablets typically contain ingredients that neutralize stomach acid, such as calcium carbonate or magnesium hydroxide. These ingredients work by raising the pH in the stomach to provide relief from indigestion symptoms.
I would say to help protect the stomach's epithelial lining from the intensities of HCl acid's low pH (1.5-3.5) as the stomach's contents turn to chyme. HCl acid is as strong as it is to destroy harmful bacteria.
The acid in your stomach is HCl with a lowercase L.
No. Stomach acid contains dilute hydrochloric acid, which is a strong acid, but not the strongest.
HCl. Hydrochloric acid.
Hydrochloric acid of the stomach would have a pH of ~ 2.
The stomach has the strongest acid concentration in the body. It is known as gastric acid and has a pH of 1 to 2 and is composed of hydrochlorlic acid.

stomach acid/fluid.
body parts of insects and acid
Stomach acid doesn't affect you stomach but does affect your outside skin because your stomach is made out of a special kind of material, that is also why it some times burns when you trow up.
Yes but all acids are weak or strong. But keep in mind that they are not dangerous to anyone not even the strongest of them example if a person gets strong acid and applies it on their arm it would take 8 hours for it to destroy the skin only with the rest of,the arm intact. So they are corrosive it just would take a long time for it to really destroy another object. If you wish think about your stomach it contains the second to strongest type of acid in the Ph scale and when you regurgitate you can not see any signs of you floor melting or burned.
