You can conduct a simple pH test using pH paper or a pH meter to differentiate between vinegar (acetic acid) and muriatic acid (hydrochloric acid).

Additionally, you can perform a reaction test with baking soda - vinegar will produce bubbles due to the release of carbon dioxide, while muriatic acid will not react in the same way.
