People often take milk of magnesia to reduce the discomfort associated with acid stomach or heartburn. The recommended dose is 1 teaspoon, which contains \(4.00 \times 10^2 mg\) of \(Mg(OH)_2\). What volume of an HCl solution with a pH of 1.3 can be neutralized by one dose of milk of magnesia? If the stomach contains \(2.00 \times 10^2 mL\) of pH 1.3 solution, will all the acid be neutralized? If not, what fraction will be neutralized?
