Answer:

Yes ! The Milkman add small amount of baking soda in fresh milk to make the pH increase from 6 to slightly alkaline . Milkman do it because after increasing pH milkman make the milk more basic if the pH decreases the milk will be spoiled and become undrinkable . By doing so milkman maintain the pH of milk and that way milk will preserve for longer use .

Answer:

A milkman adds a very small amount of baking soda to fresh milk. He shifts the pH of the fresh milk from 6 to alkaline so that in basic form it will not spoil easily. This milktakes a long time to set as curd because the lactic acid produced reacts with the baking soda.
