Solution

  1. The fermentation of ethanol or carbohydrates produces vinegar, an aqueous solution of acetic acid, which is vinegar.
  2. Typically, vinegar is used as a flavoring and preservative.
  3. As shown here, the reaction occurs when vinegar is dissolved in water.
  4. The movement of H+ and CH3COO-ions in solution facilitates electrical conduction as it releases these ions. Hence vinegar is a good conductor of electricity.

Hence, vinegar is a good conductor of electricity.
