What is acetic acid that has been mixed with water?

Acetic acid will not dissociate in water very well. Here is the equation for the reaction: HC2H3O2 (aq) + H2O (l) => H3O+ (aq) + C2H3O2- (aq) In the reaction, a water molecule (H2O) "pulls" a hydrogen ion off the acetic acid and forms the hydronium (H3O+) ion.
