Detailed Solution

The pure ethanoic acid is called glacial ethanoic acid.
This is because the melting point of pure ethanoic acid is 290 K and it freezes frequently to form colourless, ice-like liquid and hence given the name glacial acetic acid. Acetic acid, also known as ethanoic acid, is a colorless acidic liquid and organic compound with the chemical formula CH3COOH. Vinegar contains at least 4% acetic acid by volume, making it the main component of vinegar other than water and trace elements.
