The compound is ethanoic acid, and it is not a base.
CH3COOH (acetic acid) is considered a monobasic acid because it can donate only one proton (H+) per molecule in a chemical reaction. This means that it has only one hydrogen atom that can dissociate, forming one hydronium ion (H3O+) in solution.
It is CH3COOH

CH3COOH is the chemical formula for acetic acid.
Acetic Acid, CH3COOH, has a molecular weight of 60.05
NO!!!! CH3COOH is the formula for the carboxylic acid Ethanoic (Acetic) Acid. Ethanoic acid is a weak acid. it has a pH of about 3 or 4. The IUPAC organisation have drawn up standards for organic formulae. For Carboxylic( Weak / Fatty) acids always have the formula R-COOH . The 'R' being the rest of the molecule. Structurally, the 'C' has four bonds. A single bond to the 'R'. A double bond to one oxygen, and a single bond to the other oxygen , which in turn has a single bond to the hydrogen . In 2-dimension it is displayed as R-C(=O)-O-H. The 'H' dissociates to form 'H^(+)' the acid ion. It does not dissociate as 'O-H^(-). the hydroxide ion.
CH3COOH is a acid. It is a weak acid.

There is one titratable proton in acetic acid (CH3COOH). It is the proton on the carboxyl group that can be donated in an acid-base reaction during titration.

Not a base. This is the condensed formula for acetic acid. The leading H is often telling. CH3COOH is the more biologically influenced formula for acetic acid.
The conjugate base of CH3COOH is CH3COO-. This forms when CH3COOH loses a proton (H+).
The equation involves a neutralization reaction between an organic acid and a base. The general equation is: Organic acid + base -> salt + water. For example, when acetic acid (CH3COOH) reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), the equation is: CH3COOH + NaOH -> CH3COONa + H2O.
