Why is a large excess of acetic acid used in the preparation of isopentyl acetate?
Esterification of an acetic acid with isopentyl alcohol can can be used to prepare isopentyl acetate because the equilibria would not favor the formation of the ester, so equilibira will shift to the right IF we use excess amount of one of the reagents (acetic acid). We used large amounts of acetic acid because it's less expensive and it's easier to remove from a reaction mixture than isopropyl alcohol.
Why is glacial acetic acid designated glacial?
Glacial acetic acid is a trivial name for water-free acetic acid. Usually acetic acid containing usually less than 1 percent of water Glacial acetic acid is anhydrous form of acetic acid in which it exists in dimmer form. It's known as Glacial because on freezing it forms needle shape crystals
Why is acetic anhydride used in the preparation of perchloric acid?
acetyl chloride and acetic anhydride are more preferred as acetylating agents because they show great reactivity and produced irreversible reactions in the preparation of other acid derivatives. They can serve as intermediates in the conversation of the less reactive carboxylic acids to more reactive classes of compounds.
What type of preparation is used in acetic acid dilution?
Simply mix water and acetic acid to the desired concentration.
In the preparation of aspirin water is added to the reaction flask Why?
The formation of aspirin will proceed faster if acetic anhydride is used in place of acetic acid. However, acetic anhydride will hydrolyze in the presence of water to form acetic acid, slowing down the reaction.

Is acetic acid reactive?
Depends on the concentration of the acid itself. Diluted acetic acid: Vinegar, is used in foods and you could drink it.But concentrated acetic acid can be corrosive.
Why acetic acid is used in fouchet test?
The acetic acid is used in fouchet test because it is used to test a particular type of mineral.
Can acetic acid be used as a preservative?
Vinegar is used as a preservative which is essentially a solution of acetic acid in water. The federal requirement for acetic acid in vinegar is 4 g of acetic acid per 100 mL of vinegar.
What type of acid is used in dyes?
