please answer the following points:
▸ Acid-base chemistry is an integral component of our daily lives. The neutralization of sodium bicarbonate in baking soda allows our bread to rapidly rise through the production of carbon dioxide (Eqn. 1). We are nourished and refreshed by the tart flavor of citric acid. Our headaches are relieved by the action acetylsalicylic acid, more commonly known as aspirin. As you can see, there are numerous useful applications of acid-base chemistry in our daily lives, yet there are many deleterious outcomes such as acid rain. Water vapor becomes acidic upon interaction with atmospheric gases such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and carbon dioxide (Eqns. 2, 3, and 4, below). Equation 1: HCO3(aq) + H3O+ → CO₂ (g) 2. Equation 2: 2SO2(g) + O₂ + H₂O(g) → 2H₂SC Equation 3: 4NO2(g) + O₂ + H₂O(g) + 4HN( Equation 4: 2CO3(g) + H₂O(g) → H₂CO3 (aq)
Instructions For this discussion, please address the following: 1. Describe how you personally experience acid/base chemistry in your own daily life. The context could be nutritional, medicinal, agricultural, industrial, commercial, or any other relevant application of your choice. Are neutralization reactions reversible? Fully explain any formulas/calculations that you find 2. How do industrial and vehicular emissions contribute to the ongoing problem of acid rain? Describe how acidification of water may be damaging to buildings, forests, or human health.
