Acetic acid imvura isina ruvara ine hwema hwakasimba uye hunorwadza. Ine poindi yekunyunguduka ye16.6°C, poindi yekufashaira ye117.9°C, uye density ye1.0492 (20/4°C), zvichiita kuti ive yakakora kupfuura mvura. Refractive index yayo i1.3716. Pure acetic acid inooma kuita chinhu chakaita sechando chiri pasi pe16.6°C, ndosaka ichiwanzonzi glacial acetic acid. Inonyunguduka zvakanyanya mumvura, ethanol, ether, uye carbon tetrachloride.

Acetic acid inotengeswa kunyika dzakawanda, ruzivo rwuripo, uye mitengo yakaderedzwa inogona kuwanikwa nekudzvanya pano.
