Tartaric Acid and Sodium Hydroxide

C4H6O6 + 2NaOH → Na2C4H4O6 + 2H2O

개요

Tartaric acid is a chiral diprotic acid naturally found in grapes that reacts with two equivalents of NaOH to form disodium tartrate. Sodium potassium tartrate (Rochelle salt) was one of the first piezoelectric crystals discovered. Tartaric acid's chirality was studied by Pasteur in his landmark optical activity research.
