Acetic acid will not dissociate in water very well. Here is the equation for the reaction:
HC2H3O2 (aq) + H2O (l) => H3O+ (aq) + C2H3O2- (aq)
In the reaction, a water molecule (H2O) "pulls" a hydrogen ion off the acetic acid and forms the hydronium (H3O+) ion.

∙ 15y agowater is a polar molecule, it is more negative on the oxygen side and more positive on the hydrogen side...acetic acid is also a polar molecule..."like dissolves like" meaning two polar substances create a homogenous solution

Will concentration of water changes when it is mixed with glacial acetic acid why?
The concentration of water changes when you mix it with anything. Why? Because there is less water relative to whatever is being added to it. This can be expressed as a ratio, or a percentage. For instance, if one were to add 1ml of glacial acetic acid to 9 ml of water, you would still have 9 ml of water, but it will have been diluted. The volume of your solution is now 10 ml, but it is only 90% water. It can be expressed as a 1:9 dilution.
Where do you find acetic acid and where does it come from?
My experience has generally been that I find it in bottles that come from Fisher Scientific.If you're asking where you can find it, distilled or white vinegar is a (weak, about 5%) solution of acetic acid in water, and it comes from a grocery store, though ultimately it's generally produced by the oxidation of ethanol by bacteria in the genus Acetobacter.
Why is the reaction between water and acid exothermic?
Heat is always released in exothermic reactions.
What is the pH of an actetic acid solution when 30 ml 15M NaOH have been added to 50 ml HOAc?
Data is not sufficient.Concentration and Ka value of acetic acid is needed.Please reask with them.

What is the function of acetic acid in mitosis?
Acetic acid acts as a plant growth hormone. Plants that have been treated with acetic acid typically have more cells that are in the mitosis phase than untreated plants.
In the Calcite test what is in the vinegar that has been with a calcite?
The component of vinegar that reacts with the calcite is acetic acid. The acid reacts with calcium carbonate to produce water, carbon dioxide, and calcium acetate.
Is pickled onion an acid?
Onions are usually pickled using a variety of ingredients including vinegar. Vinegar is the common household name for acetic acid.

Why does vinegar stink?
Because that is just a natural property of acetic acid, which is the chemical name for what is in vinegar. White vinegar is just acetic acid and enough water to give a 5% concentration. Dark vinegar is natural vinegar which has been filtered, but not distilled. While they smell different, they both have the acetic acid smell in common.
What is the calculation in finding the pH of a L solution to which has been added W ml of MM acetic acid and W ml of MM sodium acetate?
pH = pKa + log [sodium acetate]/[acetic acid] = Henderson Hasselbalch equation

What kind of reaction will happen when vingear and baking soda?
The short answer is Chemical Reaction.. To Expand the answer this is what happens: NaHCO3(baking Soda) + HC2H3O2(Acetic Acid) → NaC2H3O2( Sodium Acetate) + H2O(Water) + CO2(Carbon Dioxide) Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda) + Acetic Acid (Vinegar) = Sodium Acetate + Water + Carbon Dioxide
