Description of key information
Tartaric acid and its salts have density values higher than 1.6 g/mL.
The determination of this property was done according to a weight of evidence approach based on available literature reference and QSAR calculation.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
A collection of the density values was performed for tartaric acid and its salts (i.e. monosodium, monopotassium, sodium potassium, sodium, potassium and calcium tartrate). All found values are listed below.

Density (g/mL) |
(+)-tartaric acid |
1.76 |
(-)-tartaric acid |
1.76 |
(±)-tartaric acid |
1.79 |
mesotartaric acid |
1.67 |
potassium hydrogen tartrate |
1.98 |
potassium sodium tartrate |

The density values are available for tartaric acid and almost all its salts. Overall, all these values are very similar and, on the whole, are higher than 1.6 g/mL.
