Bee stings can be treated with :

    Sodium hydrogencarbonate.

    Potassium hydroxide.
  • D
    Lemon juice.
✓

Answer

Correct option: B.
Sodium hydrogencarbonate.
When a bee stings a person, it injects an acidic solution into the person’s skin, which causes severe pain and an itching sensation. Applying a baking soda solution $($sodium hydrogen carbonate solution, which is a base$)$ soothes the pain by neutralising the acid.
