Answer:
Lactic acid is chiral, consisting of two enantiomers. One is known as L-(+)-lactic acid or (S)-lactic acid and the other, its mirror image, is D-(−)-lactic acid or (R)-lactic acid. ... DL-Lactic acid is miscible with water and with ethanol above its melting point, which is around 16, 17 or 18 °C.
