What is example of polar protic solvent and polar aprotic solvent?

-Polar protic solvent has a hydrogen atom attached to a strongly electronegative element (e.g. oxygen) that forms hydrogen bonds. On the other hand, polar aprotic solvents are those solvents whose molecules do not have a hydrogen atom that's attached to an atom of an electronegative element.-Polar protic solvent solvate cations and anions effectively while aprotic solvents do not solvate anions to any appreciable extend.-Polar protic solvents are more suitable for SN1 reactions, while aprotic solvents are used for SN2 reactionsReference: Organic Chemistry 9/e, T.W.

Does salt dissolve in all liquids?

salts dissolve in protic solvents do to the polar nature of salts and the solvent (like dissolves like). ie. water (protic) and sodium chloride (ionic) = Na+ + Cl- in water an example of a nonprotic solvent is DCM (dichloromethane). it is nonpolar and doesnt really react much with ions. this is something you will need to know to pass an organic chemistry.

Why you add acetic acid in bromination?

acetic acid is a polar protic solvent. protic solvents have highly developed structures held together with H-bonds.smaller ion like F- can fit easily into these cages and becomes less nucleophile. while larger anion like, Br-can't fit and remains as anion. so becomes more available nucleophiles for attck in reaction.
