Solution

The Reichert Meissl Number (RM number) test is a chemical analysis method used to determine the amount of glycerol in a substance, often applied to fats and oils. It involves saponification of the sample, followed by distillation and titration to quantify the liberated fatty acids. The resulting RM number provides insight into the purity and quality of the fats or oils being tested.
