Acitic acid have a stronger hydrogen bonding.so,need a greater amount of thermal energy to break these bonds ....Acitic acid has more dencity  than ethanol and,thus,it takes more heat to move the molecules.OR Acitic acid has higher boiling point than ethanol due to presence of OXYGEN(electro negative) atom.and the ethanol has a much higher boiling point because there is OH group attached to a CARBON
