Answer:-

The hydrochloric acid is present in the gastric juice which is secreted in the stomach. This acid helps in digestion of food. But exess of hydrochloric acid causes a painful condition called acidity. When you or anybody in your family suffers from acidity, you should take tablet or solution of milk of magnesia, which is an antacid. Milk of magnesia is a mild base. It contains magnesium hydroxide [Mg(OH)2]. It thus neutralizes the exess of hydrochloric acid.
