Technically, if it has carbon in it it's organic. The acetate ion has two carbons in it. Some people quibble about carbonates not being organic (and there is considerable merit to this view), but I've never heard anyone suggest that acetates aren't organic.

Is sodium acetate organic or inorganic?

Sodium chloride contains only sodium and chlorine and so is inorganic. In order for a compound to be organic it must contain carbon and hydrogen.


What is the solubility rule for nitrates and acetates?

Nitrates (NO3-) and acetates (CH3COO-) are generally soluble in water regardless of the cation they are paired with. This makes compounds containing these ions highly water-soluble.


Acetates?
