KOOCCH(OH)CH(OH)COOH
C4H5KO6 Formula wt 188.18
INS: 336 CAS: 868-14-4

DESCRIPTION
Potassium Acid Tartrate occurs as colorless or slightly opaque crystals, or as a white, crystalline powder. It is a salt of L(+)- tartaric acid. One gram dissolves in 165 mL of water at 25C, in 16 mL of boiling water, and in 8820 mL of alcohol. A saturated solution is acid to litmus.
Function: Acidifier; buffer.

REQUIREMENTS
Identification:
A. When sufficiently heated, a sample chars and emits flammable vapors having an odor resembling that of burning sugar. At a higher temperature and with free access to air, the heat consumes the carbon of the black residue, and a white, fused mass of potassium carbonate remains that imparts a red-purple color to a non-luminous flame.
B. Mix a saturated solution of sample with sodium cobalt nitrite TS. A yellow-orange precipitate forms.
C. Neutralize a saturated solution of sample with 1 N sodium hydroxide in a test tube, add silver nitrate TS, then just sufficient 6 N ammonium hydroxide to dissolve the white precipitate, and boil the solution. A mirror forms on the inner surface of the test tube from the silver deposited there.
Assay: Not less than 99.0% and not more than 101.0% of C4H5KO6 after drying.
Ammonia: Passes test.
Insoluble Matter: Passes test.
Lead: Not more than 2 mg/kg.
