    There is 1 OH - in 1 molecule of NaOH.

    Also, there is 1 H + in 1 molecule of lactic acid.

    So the reaction is simple.

    so just equate the moles

    moles of OH - in NaOH = moles of H + in lactic acid

    26.8 x 0.07 = 250 x Mole of lactic

    Moles of lactic = 0.0075

    so mass = 0.0075 x 90.8 = 0.681 g
