Moist baking soda is rubbed on an ant sting why

Answer»

Hey mate!!!

Here is your answer ;

When an ant bites, it injects formic ACID in our body, which results in intense skin ITCHING and irritation.

So to reduce or stop this PAIN or discomfort we use a base which is backing soda on the skin on which the ant bite.

The backing soda neutralises the effect of the acid as acids REACT with bases to neutralise and form salt and WATER. This helps to reduce the irritation.

I hope it helps you #need more brainliests marks
