I need a couple of different examples of household liquids that have a pH level like the acid in your stomach. Thanks!

Hello madlll!

Stomach acid has a pH ranging approximately between 1.5 and 3.5 depending on how much a person has eaten and similar factors.

Some household materials with similar pHs are concentrated lemon juice and vinegar, at pH 2, and grapefruit juice, at pH 3. Tomato juice, at pH 4, would be representative of about the absolute mildest that stomach acid could get.

Hope this helps, and be sure to ask if you have any more questions!
