    Which of the following is the formula of tartaremetic [Manipal MEE 1995]

    A) \[\underset{\underset{CH(OH)COOK}{\mathop{|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}}\,}{\mathop{CH(OH)COOH}}\,\]               

    B)                 \[\underset{CH(OH)COO(SbO)}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{\,\,C}}\,H(OH)COONa\,\,\,\,}}\,\]

    C) \[\underset{\underset{CH(OH)COOK}{\mathop{|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}}\,}{\mathop{CH(OH)COOK}}\,\]               

    D) \[\underset{\underset{CH(OH)COONa}{\mathop{|\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,}}\,}{\mathop{CH(OH)COOK}}\,\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    \[\underset{CHOHCOOH}{\overset{CHOHCOOH}{\mathop{|\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ }}}\,\] is known as tartaric acid and its potassium salt is known as Tartaremetic.
