Acetic acid by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is high grade reagent. Also known as ethanoic acid, this organic compound is a simple carboxylic acid which consists of a methyl group attached to a carboxyl group. This is a colourless liquid with a pungent odour, which is soluble in water. Glacial acetic acid is a name for water-free, undiluted acetic acid. Acetic acid acts as a weak monoprotic acid, where in an aqueous solution, it has a pKa value of 4.76. It dissolves not only polar compounds, but also non-polar compounds such as oils as well as polar solutes. CAS No. 64-19-7 Quantity Provided: 2.5 litres per pack Molecular formula: CH3COOH Molecular weight: 60.05 Analytical grade Aldehyde free suitable for cholesterol estimation Acetic acid has a wide range of applications in various sectors. This is a widely used chemical reagent for the synthesis of various compounds. It is majorly used for the production of vinyl acetate monomer, closely followed by acetic anhydride and ester production. Glacial acetic acid is an excellent polar protic solvent. It is used in analytical chemistry for the estimation of weakly alkaline substances such as organic amides. Acetic acid is also widely used in the food industry to manufacture vinegar. It is also incorporated in various medicinal formulations.
