Methyl Acetate

Methyl acetate, also known as methyl ethanoate, is a carboxylate ester with the formula CH₃COOCH₃. It is a volatile, colorless liquid recognized by its pleasant, fruity odor, which is often compared to that of some glues and nail polish removers. A major application of methyl acetate is as a low-toxicity solvent in the production of paints, coatings, adhesives, and cleaning products. It is also used as a flavoring agent in a variety of food products and personal care items.Industrially, it serves as a chemical intermediate, notably in the carbonylation process to produce acetic anhydride.

It will make the broken part even stronger.I decided to go with the ball-and-stick type, as it is easiest to color, is rigid, and looks awesome.The model represents the major resonance contributor.I oriented the model for optimal strengt
