Why is ethanoic acid considered a weak acid?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it ionises only partially in water

Acid strength depends mainly on the extent to which an acid ionises in water, not simply on whether it dissolves. Ethanoic acid establishes an equilibrium and releases only a fraction of its molecules as hydrogen ions and ethanoate ions: CH3COOH ⇌ H+ + CH3COO−. Thus it is a weak acid. Option A is correct; it does dissolve, is not a metal, and definitely contains carbon.
