Acetic Acid, also known as Ethanoic Acid, Ethylic Acid, Methane carboxylic Acid, has the chemical formula C2H4O2 or CH3COOH. Glacial Acetic Acid is the anhydrous Acetic Acid containing less than 1% water content. It appears as a clear, colorless solution with a sharp, vinegar odor. It is freely soluble in Water and Acetone at ambient conditions. It is prepared by dripping a solution of Acetic Acid over a solid stalactite of Acetic Acid.
The ACS Grade is generally equivalent to the reagent grade and is acceptable for use in analytical applications and research laboratories. Due to its high purity Glacial, Acetic Acid, ACS Grade is highly recommended for labs and commercial applications.
