Importance of pH in Everyday Life

1-- Our body works within the pH range of 7.0 to 7.8. Living organisms can survive only in a
narrow range of pH change.
2-- When pH of rain water is less than 5.6, it is called acid rain. When acid rain flows into
the rivers, it lowers the pH of the river water. The survival of aquatic life in such rivers
becomes difficult.
pH in our digestive system
1-- our stomach produces hydrochloric acid. It helps in the digestion of food without harming
the stomach. During indigestion the stomach produces too much acid and this causes pain
and irritation. To get rid of this pain, people use bases called antacids.
2-- These antacids neutralise the excess acid. Magnesium hydroxide (Milk of magnesia), a
mild base, is often used for this purpose.
pH change as the cause of tooth decay
1--Tooth enamel, made up of calcium phosphate is the hardest substance in the body.
2--It does not dissolve in water, but is corroded when the pH in the mouth is below 5.5.
3-- Bacteria present in the mouth produce acids by degradation of sugar and food particles
remaining in the mouth after eating.
4--The best way to prevent this is to clean the mouth after eating food. Using toothpastes,
which are generally basic, for cleaning the teeth can neutralise the excess acid and prevent
tooth decay.
5-- Self defence by animals and plants through chemical warfare Bee-sting leaves an acid
which causes pain and irritation.
6-- Use of a mild base like baking soda on the stung area gives relief.
7-- Stinging hair of nettle leaves inject methanoic acid causing burning pain
