Citric acid will provide a sour taste and sodium citrate will regulate the sour taste.
Citric acid is added for tartness.

Any salt of citric acid. Citrate is the first intermediate of the citric acid cycle and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. It also plays an important role in fatty acid synthesis which takes place in the cytoplasm.

For example, if a pH 4.9 buffer is desired, the second pKa should be used and the conjugate acid/base pair for this pKa is dihydrogen citrate and hydrogen citrate. Each of these conjugate acid/base concentrations can be multiplied by the overall volume desired to get the desired volume. However, if not all four compounds are readily available (which is quite common), each one can be generated with acid/base chemistry. For example, if only 1.0 M citric acid is available and 100 ml of 0.2 M pH 7.0 buffer is required, 0.2*0.100/1.0 = 0.02 L or 20 ml of citric acid should be used and (0.15985*3+0.04015*2) *0.100/1.0= 0.055985 L or 55.985 ml of 1.0 NaOH should be added to the citric acid to make the required amount of citrate and hydrogen citrate. This makes up for 75.985 ml and the rest 24.015 ml should be topped up with distilled water.
Sodium citrate and carbon dioxide.
Citric acid is added for tartness.
Citric acid is added for tartness.
citrate is the salt or ester of citric acid, so basically no :(
Citric Acid in fruits in a high concentration determines the tartness of a tangerine.
Citric acid and sodium hydroxide combined makes sodium citrate.
Citrate is the salt, an ester of citric acid, and the polyatomic anion that is found in solution. The ester can be triethyl citrate and the salt can be a trisodium citrate.
A citrate can refer either to the conjugate base of citric acid, (C3H5O(COO)33−).
Calcium citrate is the calcium salt of citric acid .
According to the Kraft foods website the ingredients of sure-gell are: DEXTROSE, CITRIC ACID (ASSISTS GEL), FRUIT PECTIN.
Citric acid or citrate. The reaction is catalyzed by the citrate synthase enzyme.
In the mitochondria. Usually called the Citrate or Krebs Cycle. Never heard it called "Citric"
