What is the chemical formula for acetic acid?

Explanation:

Acetic acid is an organic compound that contains atoms of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

Acetic acid is a weak acid and it weakly dissociates into ions when dissolved in water.

Chemical formula of acetic acid is . This chemical formula tells us that there are two carbon atoms, two oxygen atoms and four hydrogen atoms in a molecule of acetic acid.

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.
