You can, but white balsamic tastes stronger than white wine vinegar, so you may want to reduce the quantity that you use.
no
the answer is NO! don't ever do that. use white vinegar strictly! white rice vinegar is only for starchy foods believe me.
I disagree with the above answer. White vinegar is usually made from distilled alcohol and white rice vinegar is of course made from white rice. White vinegar is usually sharper in flavor and mass produced. While white rice vinegar can either be mass produced or made from artisan manufacturers. The writer of the recipe most likely had a particular flavor profile in mind that could be created with the rice vinegar as opposed to the white but, it should not ruin your dish if you substitute.
Most folks will not notice any appreciable difference between the two. (A blind taste test can prove that!) But you will save money. White wine vinegar can have a slightly mellower taste, but not worth the price difference in most cases.
White vinegar is usually distilled malt vinegar which removes it's distinctive malty taste. Rice vinegar is not distilled and has more complex flavours.
Rice vinegar is made from rice. White wine vinegar is made from grapes.
Rice vinegar is made from rice. White wine vinegar is made from grapes.
The flavor and coloring is different. Rice vinegar is derived from rice. Whereas distilled vinegar isn't distilled, it is made from distilled alcohol which most of the time is derived from corn.
White wine vinegar is the better substitute for rice vinegar.
If the vinegar is a very minor ingredient there shouldn't be a problem. Rice vinegar has a flavor and aroma note of its own, so if it is a primary flavoring you should not substitute. Combining three parts white vinegar with one part dry sherry could be done in a pinch.
No, wine and vinegar are quite different (whether derived from rice, grapes, or whatever). Wine contains alcohol, and vinegar contains acetic acid.

Malt vinegar, white wine vinegar, white spirit vinegar. Spirit vinegar doesn't taste as good as any of the brewed vinegars. The closest substitute is probably white wine vinegar mixed with an equal quantity of apple juice. Failing that, mix apple juice with malt vinegar. Red wine vinegar would give a taste that you might not want.
Yes.
no
no. You can not substitute any other vinegar for balsamic and get the same flavor.
