By the production of bicarbonate (HCO3-) by the pancreas. This is secreted into the duodenum where it neutralizes the acidic chyme passed to it by the stomach. Some bacteria, such as Helicobacter pylori, produces nitrogen containing compounds such as ammonia (NH3) to neutralize stomach acid inside the stomach.
the stomach
it is diluted Edited: It is NOT diluted. It is neutralized.
Food can not be digested by stomach if acid is not there the result is vomiting and weakness and finally.....
The stomach contains a strong acid.
you but a gas in which then makes your stomach expolde and grows a new one
The antacid is neutralized, but not as neutralized as it would be if it was in one's stomach. The stomach acid neutralizes the antacid more than the water, because the stomach acid has a lower pH and therefore causes a more vigorous acid-base reaction. It is a chemical change.
No, sugar does not neutralize stomach acid. Stomach acid is primarily neutralized by substances like antacids or by the body's natural buffering mechanisms. Sugar can actually stimulate the production of more stomach acid.
Acid in the stomach is actually not neutralized in the stomach, as you probably already know there is a layer of mucus inside your stomach to prevent the acid from digesting it. However, acid in the stomach (H+ ions) is neutralized in the duodenum with a base (HCO3- bicarbonate ion) that is found in the pancreatic fluid. The products of this chemical reaction are an undigestable salt and water.
When you die, the food in your stomach continues to break down because of the stomach acid that is inside the stomach at the time of death. Once the acid has neutralized, the food will no longer be digested. This takes about 24 hours.
The products are magnesium chloride and water.
When acid leaves the stomach, it enters the small intestine where it is neutralized by bicarbonate secreted by the pancreas. This helps to prevent damage to the lining of the intestine. The remaining acid is further neutralized in the small intestine by alkaline secretions.
The correct name is antacid. Indigestion is caused from stomach acid (from any of a number of conditions). The stomach acid needs neutralized (reduced). A base neutralizes acid in the stomach. An antacid does not cure the condition, but merely controls the symptoms of heartburn and indigestion.
