Gastric fluid would be hydrochloric acid. Calcium carbonate would be a common neutralizer.
CaCO3 + 2HCl -> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O
a salt, water and carbon dioxide gas ( burp!) as products of this neutralization reaction.
This is called a neutralization reaction.
when a base is mixed with an acidic solution why does neutralization occurs?
A gastric protease is an enzyme found in the stomach that breaks down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids that can be absorbed by the body. One example of a gastric protease is pepsin, which is produced by the chief cells in the stomach lining and is activated by the acidic environment of the stomach.
When an acidic and basic solution are mixed together, they neutralize each other to form water and a salt. The hydrogen ions from the acid react with the hydroxide ions from the base to form water, while the remaining ions combine to form a salt. This reaction is known as a neutralization reaction.
An indicator refers to a substance that changes color to show how a given substance is either acidic or basic.
Neutralization
Acidic
Yes it is. The proper name for it is Gastric Acid.

This is called a neutralization reaction.
Neutralization of acidic soil helps to address the problems caused by soil acidification, such as reduced nutrient availability, aluminum toxicity, and poor plant growth. By raising the pH of the soil, neutralization can improve soil fertility, promote microbial activity, and increase crop yields in acidic soils.
Mucus
Gastric Juice
mucous
The pH of gastric lipase is around 4.0 to 5.0, which is acidic. This acidic environment helps to activate the enzyme and facilitate its function in breaking down fats in the stomach.
Neutralization.
When properties of acids and bases are lost, it is known as neutralization. Neutralization occurs when an acid and a base react to form water and a salt, resulting in a solution that is no longer acidic or basic.
