Model Answer

(c) Antacid

Antacids are used to treat indigestion caused by excess acid in the stomach, as they neutralise the excess acid.

Source: Exercises, Chapter 2, Q.4

Explanation

Antacids are mild bases (e.g., milk of magnesia, baking soda) that neutralise excess stomach acid via a neutralisation reaction. Antibiotics fight bacteria, analgesics relieve pain, and antiseptics prevent infection — none of these treat acidity.
