Correct Answer: Both I and II
Solution : The correct option is Both I and II.
The melting point of acetic acid, sometimes referred to as ethanoic acid, is roughly 290 K, or 16.85°C. It is a carboxylic acid that is usually found at room temperature and pressure in a liquid state. It solidifies at 290 K when cooled. At roughly 156 K, ethanol—also referred to as ethyl alcohol or just alcohol—has a comparatively low melting point. That is the same as -117.3°C. One kind of alcohol is ethanol, which will solidify at this temperature after first being liquid.
