The supernatant liquor, which is a solution of neutral tartrate of potassa, must be drawn off by a syphon, and decomposed by a solution of chloride of calcium (muriate of lime).
It combines with acids, and forms salts acrid and pungent like itself; the phosphate, oxalate, and tartrate being crystallizable.
In decomposing the tartrateof lime, a very slight excess of sulphuric acid must be employed; because pure tartaric acid would dissolve any tartrate of lime that may escape decomposition.
In its dry state, as it exists in the tartrate of lime or lead, it consists of 36.
The former is effected by employing a cochineal bath, to which there have been added, in determinate proportions, acidulous tartrate of potash, and nitro-muriatic deutoxide of tin.
A brisk effervescence ensues, by the disengagement of the carbonic acid of the chalk, while its base combines with the acid excess in the tartar, and forms an insoluble precipitate of tartrate of lime.
The acid next combines with free Soda, existing in the blood; and this salt is oxidized into Carbonate of Soda and water, just as a Tartrate or a Citrate might be.
Thus it may be easily shown how the neutral (bibasic) tartrate of potash may, with the addition of ten atoms of oxygen, produce two equivalents of bicarbonate of potash, together with four of carbonic acid and four of water.
Take, for instance, the suggestion that the action of a tartrate upon a beam of polarized light is due to the assumption of a fourth dimensional direction by some component in the acid.
There is also another kind of tartrate which seems to be neutral in that it has no effect whatever upon the beam of light, turning it neither to the right nor to the left nor having other visible or determinable effect upon it.
Citric acid is prepared from the juice of lemons; and tartaric acid (which is more generally employed) is procured from super-tartrate of potass.
Boil half a pound of granulated tin, and six ounces of super tartrate of potass in three pints of water; when they have boiled half an hour, put in any piece of copper ware, and continue the boiling fifteen minutes longer.
Proves that the fermentation of tartrate of lime is due to a minute organism and that a similar agency underlies many other kinds of fermentation.
Thus, as Biot had shown, a solution of tartrate deflects the plane of polarized light passed through it, while a solution of the paratartrate does not.
One of the most remarkable of his researches is that which relates to the fermentation of the tartrate of lime.
Prior to Pasteur the left-handed tartrate was unknown.
The rotation reached a maximum, after which it was found that all the right-handed tartrate had disappeared from the liquid.
Thus prompted, Pasteur prepared some pure, right-handed tartrate of ammonia, mixed with it albuminous matter, and found that the mixture fermented.
But while the dissolved tartrate causes the plane of polarised light to rotate, the paratartrate exerts no such action.
A German manufacturer of chemicals had noticed that the impure commercial tartrate of lime, sullied with organic matters of various kinds, fermented on being dissolved in water and exposed to summer heat.
Some of these crystals, when placed before a mirror, produced the image of the others, and one of the two kinds of crystals corresponded rigorously in form with the tartrate prepared by means of the tartaric acid of the grape.
Give daily a ball oftartrate of iron, digitalis, ginger, and a grain of calomel.
For this purpose, aloes, tartrate of antimony, white hellebore, etc.
Take, for example, the singular fact that yeast will increase indefinitely when grown in the dark, in water containing only tartrate of ammonia a small percentage of mineral salts and sugar.
The acid is neutralized, and at the same time the silver tartrate is dissolved by the addition of ammonia, and this solution with colouring matter and gum forms the ink, which may be used with an ordinary steel pen.
Equal parts of nitrate of silver and dry tartaric acid are triturated in a mortar, and treated with water, when a reaction takes place, resulting in the formation of tartrate of silver and the liberation of nitric acid.
Citric acid is also distinguished from tartaric acid by the fact that an ammonia solution of silver tartrate produces a brilliant silver mirror when boiled, whereas silver citrate is reduced only after prolonged ebullition.
Pasteur at once instituted experiments resulting in the discovery of minute facets in the tartrate which gave it the power noted.
But while the dissolved tartrate causes the plane of polarized light to rotate, the paratartrate exacts no such action.
Lauretta Kress--aEurooeCream of tartar or Potassium Bi-tartrate is a gastro-intestinal irritant like soda.
Soda is bi-carbonate of sodium; cream of tartar is bi-tartrate of potassium.
These powders, consisting of a mixture of tartaric acid with bicarbonate of soda, from which the carbonic acid is set free, must pass into the stomach as tartrate of soda.
Ammonic Tartrate Solution* after sixty hours showed a slight sediment, with bluish flakes attached to sides of flask.
Solutions of ammonictartrate are much more favourable starting points for the new combinations than solutions of ammonic acetate.
Solutions of the ammonic tartrate in distilled water have been twice analyzed for me by a skilled chemist, without revealing the least trace either of phosphorus or sulphur.
Solutions of Ammonic Tartrate and Sodic Phosphate were heated, in their respective Flasks, for Fifteen Minutes to the Temperatures mentioned below.
Immersion in a solution of one part of chloride of gold, or of some other salts, to 437 of water, excites the glands to largely increased secretion; on the other hand, tartrate of antimony produces no such effect.
The tartrate and chloride are remarkable from the short duration of their action.
Just what acid citro-tartrate of lithium may be is hard to tell, for chemistries do not recognize such a substance.
There is the further disadvantage attending such powders, that the tartrate of soda, formed by the tartaric acid and the carbonate of soda, employed to generate the gas, is drunk with the water.
Contains anhydrous caffeine (about 2%), with sodiumtartrate and citrate.
A solution of aluminum acetate and tartrate obtained by dissolving aluminum hydroxide in a mixture of acetic and tartaric acids.
Yielding citrate and tartrate of lithium and sodium.
Its high sodium citrate and tartratecontent should be borne in mind.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "tartrate" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
