it is sometimes known as ethanoic acid.... it is CH3COOH... it is around 3 on the pH scale..
In vinegar? CH3COOH That is acetic acid.
Vinegar contains about 5–20% acetic acid (CH3COOH), water and flavourings.
Yes its oner and the same chemical. Its modern IUPAC name is Ethanoic Acid. ( CH3COOH ). It has the smell of vinegar, because it is a constituent of vinegar. Casually it is still referred to as Acetic Acid.
It will be an aqueous acetic acid solution. normally water is added in order to decrease the concentration of an acid & gives the diluted form of it.
No, acetic acid and acetic acid ester are not the same thing. Acetic acid is a simple organic compound with the chemical formula CH3COOH, while acetic acid ester is a compound formed by the reaction of acetic acid with an alcohol. Esterification of acetic acid forms esters, which are often used as fragrances or flavorings.
No. Vinegar is a mixture of water and acetic acid.
That is the condensed formula for the weak acid acetic acid.CH3COOH is a common formula for acetic acid written by biochemists and biologists
Acetic Acid is a WEAK Acid. it has a moderately low pH of about 3 or 4. It is NOT a strong acid, nor a base. Humans can digest weak carboxylic acids like vinegar, lactic acid or citric acid, but CANNOT digest strong mineral acids.
Acetic and acid ARE words, so the word form is acetic acid!
Acetic acid is most commonly known as vinegar.
No, acetic acid is produced by the oxidation of ethanol. Ethanol is oxidized to acetaldehyde, which is further oxidized to acetic acid.
Glacial acetic acid is pure acetic acid, not mixed with water. The smell of glacial acetic acid is much stronger than that of dilute acetic acid. Other than the greater intensity, the smell is exactly the same.
