Add the alkali solution to the cream very slowly, and stir constantly until a permanent pinkish color remains in the milk. The per cent of acid is foimd by mul- tiplying the number of of alkali solution used by .009, dividing by the number of of milk or cream used and mul- tiplying the result by 100. The explanation of this formula is that the alkali of the sodium hydroxide neutralizes the acid Fig. 21. —Acid Bottle J. ,, .1, , !• , n with Burette or the milk. 1 of tenth nor- mal solution contains .004 of a gram of sodium hy- droxide which neutralizes .009 of a gram of lactic acid. This is obtained from the fact that a normal solution of lactic acid contains 90 grams of acid in each liter, or 1000 Example:.
