Answer:
Halogenation of acetic acids can be done by the reaction of acetic acids with halogens such as chlorine, bromine, etc.
They can form monohaloacetic acid or dihaloacetic acid depending on the number of halogen atoms that replaces the hydrogen atoms in acetic acid.
Haloacetic acids are mostly found as contaminants in drinking water which are stable enough and creates problems.
