NaOH is a hygroscopic compound, which means that it has a very strong affinity for water. Moreover, NaOH is also a stronger base than acetic acid is a strong acid. These two properties of NaOH make it necessary for different precautions to be taken while preparing a solution.
On the other hand, acetic acid is not very reactive and may easily be prepared in a solution of unboiled water.
It’s an example of dissolving
<span>In H2CO, C is bonded to H, H and O. Write down the valence electrons of each element.
2 H = 1x 2 = 2.
C= 4
O = 6

Metals generally form cations, meaning they become positively charge - this positive charge is due to the loss of electrons.
