identify data, gather and process information from secondary sources to identify examples of naturally occurring acids and bases and their chemical composition

Does that mean just stuff like citric, acetic, lactic etc.. acids?

Yup :) You are on the right track there casmira.. You may also want to know that HCl is a naturally occuring acid in our stomach.. I think it's ~2M. NH3 occurs naturally, too, mainly due to nitrogenous organic compounds :) (and obviously that's an example of a naturally occuring base) Basically you can find naturally occuring base and acid everywhere you look.. I'll leave the rest for you to figure out (you probably have anyway..)

Hope that helps :) good luck!
