To add tartness.

Explanation:

Hello,

Citric acid is known as a commonly solid weak organic acid which has chemical formula C₆H₈O₇. It is produced naturally in citrus fruits such as orange or tangerine. In biochemistry, it is present as a necessary intermediate in the citric acid cycle, which occurs in the metabolism of all aerobic organisms. Now, due to its acid nature, when added to food, it adds tartness due to the release of hydrogen ions which provides acidity.
