I would like to know the chemical equation that would result for reacting Potassium hydrogen tartrate 
(KHC4H5O6) + Copper sulfate (CuSO4) + (Hydrogen Peroxide) H2O2.  I read about it in the Joy of 
Chemistry and thought it would be a fun lab for my 8th graders to do, but I don't know what the yield 
would be on the product side.  Can you help?
