The 0.015 moles of gastric acid will be neutralized by a 1.6 gram antacid pill.
By inhibiting the enzyme that produces acid in the stomach to break down food for digestion, antacids neutralize the gastric acid there. An enzyme called pepsin, which breaks down proteins, is inhibited by the antacids, which work by neutralizing the stomach's pH.
0.342 grams of HCL are neutralized every gram of antacid.
Based on the titration's equivalence point expression, this is calculated.
1.6 gram HCL neutralized antacid is,
(0.342 grams HCL to 1 grams antacid) A 1.6 gram antacid
= 0.5472 gram
HCL has a 36.5 gram molar mass.
Moles of HCL = 0.5472 g/36.51 g = 0.01499
As a result, HCL has a mole of 0.015 moles of gastric acid (hci) would it neutralize
