Answer:

The correct answer is option A, An antacid neutralizes excess hydrogen ions.

Explanation:

Antacid neutralizes the acid in the stomach. These are bases/ alkali's. The reaction between an acid and a base in known as neutralization thereby reducing burning sensations produced by the acid.  

The antacid when reaches the stomach form gel like composition that lie on the top of food item in the stomach and prevent the oesophagus from the irritation caused by the acid.

A force of 6.0 N gives a 2.0 kg block an acceleration of 3.0
Semenov [28]

Explanation:

The Net Force of the object can be written by:

Fnet = ma

where m is the mass of the object in <em>kg</em>

a is the acceleration of the object in <em>m/s^2</em>

Hence by applying the formula we get:

Fnet = (2.0)(3.0)

= 6N

We also know that Net force is also the sum of all forces acting on an object. In this case Friction and the Pushing Force is acting on the object. Hence we can write that:

Fnet = Pushing Force + (-Friction)

6N = 6N - Friction

Friction = 0N

Hence the<u> </u><u>f</u><u>orce of friction is 0N.</u>

Andre is studying snails and how fast they travel. He observes three groups of snails containing four snails each. Here are the
Olin [163]
The material that the snails are moving on affects their speed. On a smooth material, (petri dish) the snails moved the fastest. On a rough material (sandpaper) the snails moved the slowest. On dirt, a compromise between smooth and rough, the snails moved at a medium pace. The material and possibly friction affect this.
