Acetone has the formula (CH3)2CO.

The bonds between the carbon and hydrogen atoms are covalent, and are sigma bonds.

The bonding beween carbon and oxygen is a double bond. The carbon atom is sp2 hybridised. The bond involves a sigma bond and a pi bond

This bond is polar because of the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen.

Will sugar dissolve in acetic acid?

Yes, sugar will dissolve in acetic acid. Acetic acid is a polar solvent, and sugar is also a polar molecule, so they are compatible and will dissolve when mixed together.


Is hc2h3o2 polar or nonpolar?

Acetic acid (HC2H3O2), also known as vinegar, is a polar molecule due to the presence of polar covalent bonds. The hydrogen atoms in acetic acid are less electronegative than the oxygen and carbon atoms, resulting in a partial negative charge on the oxygen and a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms.


Is lactic acid a polar or nonpolar molecule?

Lactic acid is a polar molecule. It contains both polar (-OH) and nonpolar (CH3) groups, but the presence of the polar -OH groups makes it an overall polar molecule.


Why is paracetamol insoluble in acetic acid?

Paracetamol is produced by reaction of an acetic compound and another compound. So, it already contains an acetic acid molecule. Therefore the 2 molecules cannot recombine unless forced to under reaction circumstances. Also, acetic acid cannot dissolve into water and form an azeotrope
