Question

Suppose the fluid in the stomach of a man suffering from indigestion can be considered to be 

250.mL

 of a 

0.063

 M 

HCl

 solution. What mass of 

NaHCO3

 would he need to ingest to neutralize this much 

HCl

 ? Round your answer to 

2

 significant digits.

 
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 (HCl) , which the stomach secretes to help digest food. Drinking a glass of water containing dissolved NaHCO, neutralizes excess HCl through this reaction: HCl(aq) + NAHC03(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H,O(1) + CO,(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 250. mL of a 0.063 M HCl solution. What mass of NAHCO, would he need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl ? Round your answer to 2 significant digits. x10
