Bees inject an acidic substance when they sting. Which of the following chemical could be used to treat bee stings?

A. CH3COOH
B. NaHCO3
C. C2H5OH
D. H2O2

Correct Answer: Option B

B. NaHCO3

Explanation

Bees, on the other hand, have acidic toxins in their stings, and so an alkaline solution should be applied to neutralize them. Baking soda (NaHCO3) mixed with cold water is usually the most effective way of making an alkaline solution.
