Why is vinegar considered to be a weak acid?

Answer 1

Acetic acid is a weak acid because, like all other weak acids, it only disassociates partially in water (also known as incomplete ionisation).

Answer 2

Vinegar, which is primarily acetic acid, is considered a weak acid because it does not fully ionize in water, meaning it only partially dissociates into hydrogen ions and acetate ions. This results in a lower acidity compared to strong acids that completely dissociate in solution.

Answer 3

it reacts with water to form some ions that can carry current.

Answer 4

this is because a dilute solution of acetic acid doesnt conduct electricity as well as a dilute solution of nitric acid at the same concentration.

Answer 5

The acetic acid (CH3COOH) is known as a weak acid.

Answer 6
