Ethanol, also called alcohol, ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, and drinking alcohol, is a chemical compound, a simple alcohol with the chemical formula C ₂H ₅OH. Its formula can be also written as CH ₃−CH ₂−OH or C ₂H ₅−OH, and is often abbreviated as EtOH.
it is from alchohol functional group.
Acetic acid, systematically named ethanoic acid, is a colourless liquid organic compound with the chemical formula CH₃COOH. When undiluted, it is sometimes called glacial acetic acid. Vinegar is no less than 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar apart from water.
Formula: CH3COOH
IUPAC ID: Acetic acid
it is from carboxylic group
