Answer:

Though HCl is a strong acid it becomes diluted in our stomach because we contain alot of water in our body/stomach and also mucus is secreted by the gastric glands which prevents HCl to corrode.as a result the walls of the stomach won't be hurted/digested by HCl.

hope this will help you

see ya !

The potent hydrochloric acid kills bacteria, protecting your body from harmful microbes which can enter your body in food. Your stomach protects itself from being digested by its own enzymes, or burnt by the corrosive hydrochloric acid, by secreting sticky, neutralising mucus that clings to the stomach walls.This mucus protects your stomach from inside.
