Heya buddy....!✌️
Here is ur answer..!✌️

The mucus is a protective layer present of the inner lining of the stomach. It prevents the Hydrochloric Acid present in the stomach to reach the wall of the stomach. This is because Hydrochloric Acid is a very strong acid with a pH value of 3. It can even digest an iron nail.

Hope this much is satisfactory to make u understand..!✌️
