Infant formula An infant being fed from a baby bottle. Infant formula, also called baby formula, simply formula (American English), baby milk or infant milk (British English), is designed and marketed for feeding to babies and infants under 12 months of age, usually prepared for bottle-feeding or cup-feeding from powder (mixed with water) or liquid (with or without additional water).
Water boiling at 99.3 °C (210.8 °F) at 215 m (705 ft) elevation. The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid equals the pressure surrounding the liquid [1] [2] and the liquid changes into a vapor. The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the surrounding environmental pressure.
Lactose, or milk sugar, is a disaccharide composed of galactose and glucose and has the molecular formula C 12 H 22 O 11. Lactose makes up around 2–8% of milk (by mass). The name comes from lact (gen. lactis ), the Latin word for milk, plus the suffix -ose used to name sugars.
Deciding how to feed a baby, whether breastfeeding or formula feeding, can be challenging for parents. Here's how to choose water for baby formula.
Frozen breast milk should be consumed in the order it was expressed; always using first the oldest milk available. [12] [11] Frozen breast milk should be prepared for consumption in one of three ways: slow thaw in the refrigerator, rapid water bath thaw at a temperature under 37°C, or running lukewarm water; it should not be thawed in a microwave.

The spoilage of milk can be forestalled by using ultra-high temperature treatment. Milk so treated can be stored unrefrigerated for several months until opened but has a characteristic "cooked" taste. Condensed milk, made by removing most of the water, can be stored in cans for many years, unrefrigerated, as can evaporated milk.
i = 1 for sugar in water; i = 1.9 for sodium chloride in water, due to the near full dissociation of NaCl into Na + and Cl − (often simplified as 2) i = 2.3 for calcium chloride in water, due to nearly full dissociation of CaCl 2 into Ca 2+ and 2Cl − (often simplified as 3)
