That would be hydrochloric acid. HCl.
Stomach juice is acidic. Because of hcl acid.
The role of hydrochloric acid in our stomach isn't the digestion of food. Its role is to create an acidic medium in the stomach so that other enzymes and gastric juices could do their work well.
Vomit is acidic because it contains stomach acid, which is produced by the stomach to help break down food. When a person vomits, the stomach acid is expelled along with the contents of the stomach, resulting in the acidic nature of vomit.
Stomach acid refers specifically to the acidic fluid produced in the stomach to aid digestion. "Acid" is a more general term that can refer to a variety of substances with acidic properties, not necessarily related to digestion.

how strong is stomach acid?!!!!!please answer!!!!!
Stomach acid, also known as gastric acid, is stronger and more acidic than lemon juice. Stomach acid has a pH of around 1.5 to 3.5, while lemon juice typically has a pH of around 2.0 to 2.6.
Stomach acid - hydrochloric acid - has a pH of between 1 and 2. This makes the stomach very acidic.
Stomach acid has a pH between 1.5 to 3.5, making it a highly acidic environment. This acidic pH helps to break down food and kill pathogens in the stomach.
It is about pH 1 to 2. The gastric acid in our stomach (mainly consisting of hydrochloric acid, HCl) is at this pH level. The acidic medium is necessary for the digestive enzymes, such as those involved in the digestion of proteins, in gastric juice to work.
