Question

Tartaric acid, H2C4H4O6, has two acidic hydrogens. The acid
is often present in wines and a salt derived from the acid precipitates
from solution as the wine ages. A solution containing
an unknown concentration of the acid is titrated with
NaOH. It requires 24.65 mL of 0.2500 M NaOH solution to
titrate both acidic protons in 50.00 mL of the tartaric acid
solution. Write a balanced net ionic equation for the neutralization
reaction, and calculate the molarity of the tartaric
acid solution.
