Answer :
Acetic acid, formula CH3COOH, is a simple organic acid, with a pKa of 4.76. Pure water, H2O has a nominal pKa of 14 at 25*C. This means that a significant fraction of acetic acid deprotonates to the acetate ion (CH3COO-) in H2O, thereby generating an equal fraction of H3O+ (Hydronium) and CH3COO- (Acetate) ions.
