I-Acetic acid iwuketshezi olungenambala olunephunga elinamandla nelinomunyu. Inezinga lokuncibilika elingu-16.6°C, izinga lokubila elingu-117.9°C, kanye nobuningi obuhlobene obungu-1.0492 (20/4°C), okwenza kube lukhuni kunamanzi. Inkomba yayo yokubuyisa ingu-1.3716. I-acetic acid emsulwa iyaqina ibe yinto eqinile efana neqhwa engaphansi kuka-16.6°C, yingakho ivame ukubizwa ngokuthi i-glacial acetic acid. Incibilika kakhulu emanzini, i-ethanol, i-ether, kanye ne-carbon tetrachloride.

I-Acetic acid ithengiswa emazweni amaningi, idatha iyatholakala, futhi amanani anesaphulelo angatholakala ngokuchofoza lapha.
