No, vinegar will only inhibit enzymatic 'browning' of polyphenols in appel juice for example. This inhibition will only reduce 'oxidation reaction' speed, not preventing or excluding it.

∙ 10y agoI belive the answer your looking for is Acetic Acid. The acid that causes the stinging feeling that one gets from applying Vinagre to an open wound. Acetic Acid is what causes Vinagre to eat through the patina on copper when applied with salt to the surface of copper implaments.

Is gold a reducing agent or a oxidising agent?
Strong Oxid. Agent bcs Reduction Potential is too high.
What is the oxidising agent in kmno4 h2c2o4 h2so4?
KMnO4 and H2SO4 are oxidising agents. Oxidising agents are hungry for electrons...
Equation to show NO2 acts as a reducing agent and oxidising agent?
NO2(g)+SO2(g)-->NO(g)+SO3(g) here NO2 act as a oxidising agent
Is iodide an oxidising agent?
No iodide is a reducing (the opposite of oxidizing) agent at least with potassium iodide.
Is nitric acid an oxidising agent?
No. Hydrogen gas is generally a reducing agent.
Which halogen is the strongest oxidising agent?
Fluorine is the strongest oxidising agent.
What is the oxidising agent in 3Mg plus N2 and rarrMg3N2?
Magnesium is the oxidising agent.

Is hypo is an oxidising agent or reducing agent in photography?
Hypo is a reducing agent when combined with Na.
Is ammonium ion a reducing or oxidising agent?
Reducing
What is the term for substances that promote oxidation?
An Oxidising agent.
What is the relationship between oxidising agent and the reduced substance?
Its the substance reduced which is termed to be an oxidizing agent. When a substance is reduced, it loses electrons that are taken up by another substance thereby oxidizing another substance (oxidising agent).
What reacts with potassium iodide to give a brown color?
Potassium Iodide is used as a test for oxidising agent. When mixed with the oxidising agent it will turn brown.Example: FluorineIodide is yellow in colour.
Is iodide an oxidising agent?
No iodide is a reducing (the opposite of oxidizing) agent at least with potassium iodide.
