Explanation:

It is a part of baking powder with baking soda and they both makes the baking powder. Without the tartaric acid the baking soda does not reacts to form carbon dioxide with water to make the dough rise.

An acid is highly exothermic and when a substance is immersed in it, it gives large amount of heat and energy. So the acids are always diluted by adding it in water becoz water absorbs most of the heat produced by acid and if the water is added into the acid the acid splashes to the

person who is doing the experiment.
