What is the difference between an acquittal and a hung jury?

An acquittal is when the judge (in a bench trial) or the jury (in a jury trial) finds the defendant not guilty. The defendant has to go through the whole trial before he is acquitted. A dismissal is when the judge throws out the case before going to trial for a specific reason (lack of evidence for example.) The dismissal happens before there is even a trial.
