Acetate, C2H3O2 is derived and is an ester of acetic acid, which can also be known as vinegar. Acetic acid is known as Hydrogen acetate, which is a very important organic acid. Forms of acetate occur in various chemical substances. Since Acetate is a chemically created ion, it does not occur naturally in nature. It can however occur as a biosynthesis, which is the most common building block in nature. Instead it tends to combine with other elements to create unique chemical compounds including sodium, cellulose, and vinyl acetate. Acetate usually does not occur by itself, it will most often occur with esters and salts. | |||
