The anion of acetic acid is called acetate ion. It is formed when acetic acid loses a proton (H+) and becomes negatively charged. The chemical formula for acetate ion is CH3COO-.
When a strong acid reacts with a metal acetate, it typically forms the corresponding metal salt and acetic acid. For example, if hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium acetate, it would produce sodium chloride and acetic acid. This reaction involves the displacement of the anion of the acid by the acetate anion.
The product of pyridine and acetic acid is pyridinium acetate. This is formed through an acid-base reaction where the acidic hydrogen in acetic acid is transferred to the nitrogen in pyridine, resulting in the formation of a pyridinium cation and an acetate anion.
The definition given in the question is that of a traditional acid.
Acetate is a type of anion, specifically the conjugate base of acetic acid. It has a chemical formula of C2H3O2- and carries a negative charge.
Acetic acid itself is the chemical name. Its Formula is CH3COOH. It is a weak acid. When it is undiluted, it is known as Glacial Acetic Acid. An 8% watery solution of it in the kitchen is called "Vinegar", and an even weaker solution of it in the photo- darkroom is called "stop bath".
No. Acetate is the anion (negative ion) derived from acetic acid. Acetic acid is CH3COOH. Acetate is CH3COO-. Acetate ions exist in minute concentrations in a solution of acetic acid and can also be produce by neutralizing acetic acid with a base.

Lactic acid is stronger than acetic acid due to its molecular structure, which allows it to more readily donate a proton (H⁺) in solution. The presence of the hydroxyl group (-OH) in lactic acid stabilizes the resulting anion through resonance, making it more favorable for the acid to dissociate. In contrast, acetic acid has a less effective resonance stabilization of its anion, making it a weaker acid. Thus, the ability of lactic acid to stabilize its conjugate base contributes to its greater acidity compared to acetic acid.

Acetic Acid: CH3COOH tells us the strucuture.http://z.about.com/d/chemistry/1/0/f/m/aceticacid.jpgAs CH3 is separate from the Carboxide polyatomic anion ( [COOH]- ) it is going to remain unchanged. As we know that COOH has disassociation of an H in water, to form [H3O]++[COO]-. H3O is an acid according to the Lewis, the Arrhenius, and the Bronsted Theories. Therefore, as an acid ionizes in water (to form a cation in aqueous solution and an anion in aqueous solution) it does not matter that acetic acid is organic, because it dilutes all the same.Rule of thumb: ALL acids ionize in water to form (coefficient)[Cation]X1+(aq)+(coefficient)[Anion]X2-(aq).
No its not a salt but a weak organic acid having chemical formula CH3COOH
Vinegar contains about 5–20% acetic acid (CH3COOH), water and flavourings.
Yes. Acetic acid is a lot like acetic acid.
Kc2h3o2 is an acid because it contains the acetate ion, which can donate a proton (H+) in a solution, forming acetic acid. In water, the acetate ion can react with water molecules to produce hydronium ions (H3O+) and acetic acid, which makes it an acid.
