acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Acetic acid

Acetic acid, also known as ethanoic acid, is an organic chemical compound best recognized for giving vinegar its sour taste and pungent smell. Pure water-free acetic acid is a colourless hygroscopic liquid (that is, it readily absorbs water) that freezes below 16.7 °C (62 °F) to a colourless crystalline solid. Acetic acid is corrosive, and its vapour is irritating to eyes and nose, although it is a weak acid based ...

acetic acid: Encyclopedia II - Acetic acid - Applications Acetic acid is a chemical reagent for the production of many chemical compounds. The largest single use of acetic acid is in the production of vinyl acetate monomer, closely followed by acetic anhydride and ester production. The volume of acetic acid used in vinegar is comparatively small. Acetic acid - Vinyl acetate monomer. The major use of acetic acid is for the production of vinyl acetate monomer (VAM). This application consumes approximately 40% to 45% of the world's production of acetic acid. The rea ...

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Acetate

Acetate, or ethanoate, is the anion of a salt or ester of acetic acid. The acetate ion has the formula CH3COO-, and is the conjugate base of acetic acid. Acetate can also refer to cellulose acetate, especially fibers or other derived products such as the acetate disc used in audio record production. Acetate can be found in many household products. Historically (prior to the discovery and naming of actinium) the abbreviation Ac (or AC) was sometimes used in c ...

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Anhydride

In chemistry, an anhydride is typically an oxide of a nonmetallic element or an organic radical, capable of forming an acid by uniting with the elements of water. The anhydride is so called because it may be formed from an acid by the removal of water. Examples of inorganic anhydrides include dinitrogen pentoxide, which is the anhydride of nitric acid, and sulfur trioxide, which is the anhydride of sulfuric acid. Useful organic anhydrides include acetic anhydride (an acid anhydride), formed by the condensation of acetic acid: 2 CH3COOH → (CH

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Cooking wine

Cooking wine refers to inexpensive wine that has been treated with salt as a preservative. It is intended for use as an ingredient in food rather than as a beverage. When a wine bottle is opened and the wine is exposed to oxygen, a fermentative process will transform the alcohol into acetic acid resulting in wine vinegar. The salt in cooking wine inhibits the growth of the acetic acid producing microorgasisms. This preservation is important because a bottle of cooking wine may be opene ...

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Cholic acid

Cholic acid is a bile acid, a white crystalline substance insoluble in water, with melting point at 200-201 °C. Its salt is called cholate. Cholic acid is one of the 4 main acids produced by the liver. It is soluble in alcohol and acetic acid. It forms a conjugate with taurine, yielding taurocholic acid. Cholic acid is also called 3α,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5β-cholanic acid. Its summary chemical formula is C24H40O5. Cholic ...

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Acetyl

Acetyl (IUPAC name ethanoyl) is the acyl of acetic acid, with chemical formula -COCH3, sometimes abbreviated to Ac (not to be confused with the element actinium). A molecule containing an acetyl group has the chemical structure . (where R denotes the remainder of the molecule.) The acetyl radical contains a methyl group single-bonded to a carbonyl. The carbon of the carbonyl has an lone electron available, with which it forms a ch ...

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Verdigris

Verdigris is the common name for the chemical Cu(CH3COO)2. It commonly occurs by the action of acetic acid when copper, brass or bronze are weathered and exposed to air or seawater over a period of time. Its name comes from the Middle English vertegrez, from the Old French verte grez, an alteration of vert-de-Grice—verd (green), de (of)

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Collodion

Collodion is a solution of nitrocellulose in ether or acetone, sometimes with the addition of alcohols. Its generic name is pyroxylin solution. It is toxic and highly flammable. As the solvent evaporates, it dries to a celluloid-like film. It was used as a wound dressing, as an emulsion in some early photographic plates (the collodion process), and various other topical medications. One example, Compound W Wart Remover, still exists, consisting of acetic acid and salicylic acid in an acetone collodion base. Pyroxylin with added pigments is used as a nitrocellulose lacquer. It was also added to nitr ...

acetic acid: Encyclopedia - Vinegar

Vinegar (from Old French vinaigre, meaning "sour wine") is a sour-tasting liquid made from the oxidation of ethanol in wine, cider, beer, fermented fruit juice, or nearly any other liquid containing alcohol. It can also be made by certain bacteria operating on sugar-water solutions directly, without intermediary conversion to ethanol (see acetic acid). Vinegar - Production. Vinegar production may be started by the addition of mother of vinegar to wine or cider. Vinegar is a dilute form of acetic acid ...

Acetophenone (C6H5-C(=O)-CH3) (1-phenylethanone) is a crystalline ketone that is used as a solvent for cellulose ethers and esters in the making of alcohol-soluble resins. These in turn are used in perfume.Acetophenone is used to create these fragrances; almond, cherry, honeysuckle, jasmine, and strawberry. This chemical may be obtained by the dry distillation of a mixture of the calcium salts of acetic and benzoic acids. At one time it was used as a hypnotic under the name of hypn ...
