Best Answer

yes vinegar and ammonia neutralize each other in the following reaction:

CH3COOH + NH3 --> CH3COONH4

in other words, the vinegar and ammonia will react forming ammonium acetate. this product is a de-icing agent, but as far as I know is not a cleaner or anything of any other use. DO NOT HEAT IT, you will be left with acetamide which is a known carcinogen in rats!!!!!!!
