Chapter 7, Problem 11RQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The effects of strong acids and strong bases on the skin should be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Acids are substances that donate H+ ion/s in aqueous solutions. The effect of an acid on skin depends on its strength. For example: acetic acid is weak acid, commonly known as vinegar which is eatable and does not harm skin, when comes in contact. But strong acid, such as acids used in cars can cause serious skin injuries if come in contact.

Bases are substances that donate OH- ion and accept H+ ion in the aqueous solution. Strong bases can accept this proton from any molecules due its strong basic nature resulting damage to that molecule. Ammonia and bleach are examples of bases that cause burn when comes in contact with skin.
