Milk is not basic.
Milk of magnesia is a suspension of Magnesium Hydroxide in water, which is a base.
Milk of magnesia is a basic (alkaline) substance because it contains magnesium hydroxide, which tends to increase the pH of a solution by accepting hydrogen ions.
Neither is acidic, both are basic. But milk of magnesia is less basic and therefore more acidic.
magnesium hydroxide in dilute suspension used as an ANTI-ACID. Thus a very mild alkaline substance.
The fresh milk contains Lactose , a sugar, the temperature about 38 to 40 Celsius and oxygen of air oxidized the Lactose into Lactic acid which saturates the fats of milk so milk becomes sour. the pH of fresh milk is basic (about 8 to 9) after souring it moves to acidic side (about 5 to 6).
Milk of magnesia is basic (alkaline), not acidic.
No, it is basic.
It contains Magnesium Hydroxide.It is a basic compound.
Milk of magnesia contains MgO. It is more basic than NH3.

Basic mayonnaise has no milk .. lol, i found out about this is from a game, restaurant city ;D
Basic foods, like milk
acid
Milk is considered to be slightly acidic, with a pH ranging from 6.5 to 6.7. This acidity is due to the presence of lactic acid produced by bacteria during fermentation.
