Acetic acid is classified as a polar protic solvent. It is similar to water and ethanol, which are also solvents. It has the capability to dissolve salts, sugars, and oils; and is used in industrial applications due to its dissolving abilities.
Acetic acid is a main contributor to the formation of chemicals used in paints and adhesives.
White vinegar, due to its acidic properties, is a good cleaning agent. It can dissolve mineral deposits, and cut through oils and grease.
