7 up

The reason why 7up is called by this name

In analytical chemistry, there is what is known as the pH, and this number is symbolized by ph. (It is the concentration of hydrogen in the solution)

  And the symbol is ph. He has three cases

When pH = 7 The solution will be neutral

   When 7 < ph. The middle of the solution is alkaline

   When 7   > pH The middle of the solution is acidic

Therefore, there are three media for solutions: acidic, alkaline, and neutral. We return to 7-up, of course, the meaning of up in Arabic is higher, meaning that the ph. It is higher than seven, which means that the solution medium is alkaline

    It is known that the stomach contains hydrochloric acid, which means that the center of the stomach is acidic, so why does anyone have a stomach ache?

    Why do doctors recommend drinking 7up?

Because 7UP is an alkaline medium + the stomach is an acidic medium, it = a neutral medium, meaning neutralization occurs in the stomach medium and it calms down

T-shirt

Some slave owners (in America) used to give their slaves some of their used cotton undershirts for these slaves to wear during their hard work, since the slaves lived in harsh living conditions and ate food with limited health value.

The shirts given to them by the slave owners were often baggy and loose on their thin bodies compared to the luxurious bodies of their masters.

According to the Americans' custom of giving short names to things, they called this type of loose, short-sleeved shirt a "T-shirt," meaning a shirt with the letter T. The color of the shirt, if spread flat, looks similar to the letter T.
