Solid fuel
I think what happens is a simple precipitation. Calcium acetate isn't soluble in ethanol, and hence crashes out of solution when ethanol is added to a saturated solution of calcium acetate.The precipitation is quick, leading to small strands of solid Ca(OAc)2, forming a solid gel. A gel consists of a continuous open network and a solvent. The network can be either solid or soluble in the solvent.
yes
Ethanol and acetic acid combine to form ethyl acetate through a process called esterification.

Of course, calcium acetate is a molecule.The chemical formula of calcium acetate is (CH3COO)2Ca.
No. Calcium carbonate and calcium acetate are two different compounds.
Calcium acetate is soluble in water.
Ca-acetate is a weak base, conjugated with a weak acid: H-acetate (i.e. acetic acid)
Zinc acetate is not easily solved in ethanol, so it is necessary to add one of this stabilizer such as DI water, MEA , DEA , TEA to obtain a completely clear and transparent solution .
Beryllium acetate is soluble in ethanol due to its ability to form hydrogen bonds with the ethanol molecules. The polar nature of ethanol allows it to interact effectively with the beryllium cation and the acetate anions, stabilizing them in solution. Additionally, the relatively small size of the beryllium ion facilitates its solvation by the ethanol molecules, enhancing solubility. Overall, the interactions between the solute and solvent promote the dissolution of beryllium acetate in ethanol.
Calcium acetate is ionic. It is formed when a calcium cation (Ca2+) and an acetate anion (C2H3O2-) bond together through ionic bonds, which involve the transfer of electrons.
The molar mass of calcium acetate is approximately 142 g/mol.
