Is Milk An Acid Or Base?


Open in App
Solution

Since milk contains lactic acid, the pH will be slightly acidic.

  1. The pH of milk depends on how it is processed, how long it has been packaged and opened, and how much milk is produced by the cow.
  2. At 295 K, the pH of milk is typically between 6.5 and 6.7.

Hence, milk is an acid.
