Initial Knowledge Check Question 8 Jacqueline Sodium hydrogen carbonate (NaHCo,), also known as sodium bicarbonate or "baking soda", can be used to relieve acid indigestion. Acid indigestion is the burning sensation you get in your stomach when it contains too much hydrochloric acid (HcI), which the stomach secretes to help digest food Drinking a glass of water containing dissolved NaHCO3 neutralizes excess HCI through this reaction: alo 18 HCI(aq) + NaHCO3(aq) → NaCl(aq) H20(l) + CO2(g) The co, gas produced is what makes you burp after drinking the solution Suppose the fluid in the stomach of a man suffering from indigestion can be considered to be 50. mL of a 0.091 M HCI solution.

States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
