Assertion (A) : Free sulphuric acid is rarely found in stomach contents in acid poisoning case.
Reason (R) : Because either it is vomited out or neutralized by alkalies given as antidotes.
Codes :
Answer: C
Both statements are correct. In sulphuric acid poisoning free acid is rarely found in the stomach contents, because the patient vomits much of it and any acid left is neutralised by the alkalies (such as magnesia or soda) given as antidotes, and the stomach tissue itself also reacts with it. The reason therefore explains the assertion.
The options that call either statement incorrect are wrong.
