I managed to prepare the solution and used some special gloves used to handle acids and other corrosive liquids when handling them. | |

What I was doing was setting up the reagents for the experiment where acetic acid and ethanol form an ester. Being an idiot I thought glacial acetic acid was just like vinegar. | |
