Therefore bases will neutralize the waste before it is released into water bodies.
Explanation:
- Acids in nature are highly corrosive; thus, they can cause substantial damage to the living organisms found in water.
- Even, if the waste is allowed to flow unchecked into the bodies of water, it can poison the water, rendering it unsafe for drinking.
- Therefore bases will neutralize the waste before it is released into water bodies.
