Verified by Toppr

In case of Water:
Water molecule which consists of two hydrogen atoms bonded to an oxygen atom.All of the electron pairs are shared and unshared electrons repel with each other.These are having bent structure.
In case of acetic acid:
Acetic acid is a polar molecule and can form hydrogen bond with molecules. Therefore, so it has a high solubility in water.
