Ever seen Fight Club?
Say you get some lye on yor skin, and it burns. Lye is a base. If you run your hand under water, the lye will spread over a wider surface of your skin, and make the burn worse. If you use an acid, like vinegar, instead, it will neutralize the base.
In a more likely real-life situation, say you get battery acid on your fingers. You would want to use a base, like baking soda, to neutralize it.

hi Tanya! This answer would be greater significant in case you have ever suffered from heartburn. Heartburn can result from the accumulation of too lots digestive acid contained in the tummy (frequently referred to as acid indigestion). Taking an antacid, like Tums (made up of in maximum cases calcium carbonate - a base), neutralizes the acid and ends the discomfort of heartburn. it quite is one elementary (and efficient) use of the understanding of acids and bases!

When acid corrosion builds up on a car battery, one can prepare a basic solution of baking soda and water, which will neutralize the acid.

For every acid there is a base. For every base there is an acid. For every positive in life there is a negative. For every negative in life there is a positive.
Like the 'world' of acids and bases, life is balanced.

If you vomit make sure you rinse the stomach acid out of your mouth.
The acid is strong enough to dissolve tooth enamel.

Well, would you rather have lemon juice in your eye, or milk? Ouch, forget that. Think about if you have a cut. Would you want salt to get on it?
