It leads to the formation of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) and Water (H2O).
Explanation:
When Baking Soda (NaHCO3) is added to Vinegar (Acetic acid - CH3COOH), it pretends to liberate Carbon dioxide gas. Because, when Baking Soda is heated, we get Sodium Carbonate (Na2CO3). So, when we add the Tartaric acid in it, results in the liberation of Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas.
When the Carbon dioxide gas is passed through the Lime water [Ca(OH)2], it leads to the formation of Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) and Water (H2O).
Reaction of Lime water due to the action of Carbon dioxide gas
Ca(OH)2 + CO2 → CaCO3 + H2O.
