Solution

No,As we all know that vinegar & lemon juice are acidic in nature. Vinegar and lemon juice are Acetic acid and citric acid respectively. The acids are corrosive and can cause damage to the kitchen tops. Hence, while constructing a house,if a builder it selects marble table tops, Vinegar and lemon juice falls on marble & react with marble causing discolourisation,marks etc on top.
