Answer 2

No, calcium oxalate is not soluble in acetic acid. This is because , calcium oxalate when react with aqueous solution or acetic acid gives off white precipitate that insoluble in nature. Basically calcium oxalate is soluble only in strong acids since acetic acid is weak acid it is insoluble.
