Understanding the Pain of Bee and Wasp Stings: Acidity and Basicity Explained

Bee stings are painful due to their highly acidic properties, while wasp stings cause discomfort because they are highly basic. This presentation aims to explain the chemical reasons behind the differing sensations caused by these insect stings. We extend our gratitude to Mr. Enns from Cedar Ridge Middle School for providing the foundational information that supports this presentation. Join us as we explore the science of insect venom and its effects on the human body.
