Almost all vinyl acetate now is produced via the vapor-phase reaction of ethylene and acetic acid over a noble-metal catalyst, usually palladium. The reaction is typically carried out at 175–200 ºC ...

A seed crystal can be dropped into a saturated solution of sodium acetate. The solution will suddenly crystallize and turn to solid. Alternately, the solution may be slowly poured out onto a seed ...
