CH₃COOH is ethanoic acid. -COOH is the formula of the functional group present in ethanoic acid.

Its 5 to 8% solution in water is called vinegar.

Sodium ethanoate and brisk effervescence due to carbon dioxide gas are formed on reaction of ethanoic acid with sodium carbonate.

2CH₃COOH(l) + Na₂CO₃(aq) → 2CH₃COONa(aq) + CO₂(g) + H₂O(l)

The salt produced has common name sodium acetate.
