Question

Good evening guys....

Write the physical properties of ethanoic acid. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

First, what is physical properties?

A physical property is any property that is measurable, whose value describes a state of a physical system. The changes in the physical properties of a system can be used to describe its changes between momentary states. Physical properties are often referred to as observables. They are not modal properties.

Second, What is Ethanoic Acid?

Ethanoic acid (CH3COOH) belongs to the group of carboxylic acids and is commonly called as acetic acid. Acetic acid is the common name for Ethanoic acid.

So, here's the Physical Properties of Acetic acid

• It is slightly heavier than water with a density of 1.05 g/cm3.

• After adding 5-8% of acetic acid in water it becomes vinegar.

• Mostly used as preservatives in pickles.

• Its appearance is colourless liquid.

• It's odor is heavily vinegar-like.

• It is miscible in terms Solubility in water.

Hope it helps :D

Answer 2

Answer:

Ethanoic Acid - Structure, Uses, Physical and Chemical Properties

The flash point of Ethanoic Acid is 39°C.

The density of Ethanoic Acid is 1.05 g/cm³

The boiling point of Ethanoic Acid is 118°C and it's melting point is 16°C.

Ethanoic Acid has one hydrogen bond donor and two hydrogen bond acceptor atoms.

The solubility of pure Ethanoic Acid in water is >100 mg/mL at 25°C.

Properties of Acetic acid

Chemical formula CH3COOH

Molecular Weight/ Molar Mass 60.05 g/mol

Density 1.05 g/cm3

Boiling Point. 118oC

Melting Point. 16oC
