TaigaGlacial acetic acid is a concentrated form of acetic acid, which is a reducing agent. When mixed with potassium permanganate (KMnO4), which is an oxidizing agent, a vigorous reaction can occur, resulting in the release of heat, gas, and potentially causing a fire or explosion. This reaction is dangerous and should be avoided.

What is the pH of glacial acetic acid?
The pH of glacial acetic acid is typically around 2.4.
What is the colour of glacial acetic acid?
Pure glacial acetic acid appears colorless. However, it may sometimes appear slightly yellowish due to impurities or exposure to light.
Does glacial acetic acid smell the same as acetic acid?
Yes, glacial acetic acid has a very pungent and strong vinegar-like odor, just like regular acetic acid. The main difference between the two is their concentration - glacial acetic acid is 99-100% pure acetic acid, while regular acetic acid solutions are typically around 5-10% acetic acid in water.
Difference between 0.1 M acetic acid and glacial acetic acid?
Glacial acetic acid doesn't have water in it. Acetic acid ordinarily would be in a solution. Acetic acid is a weak acid, but it can be very concentrated. Glacial acetic acid is a acetic acid of a high purity more then 99.75 %
What is the difference between glacial Acetic acid and acetic acid one five percent solution?
Glacial acetic acid is concentrated acetic acid, typically containing 99-100% acetic acid, while a 1.5% acetic acid solution is a diluted form with only 1.5% of acetic acid dissolved in water. The difference lies in their concentrations, with glacial acetic acid being much more concentrated compared to the 1.5% solution.
