Since vinegar has a low concentration of acetic acid(about 5%) it only has a pH of only ~2.4 and so is a weak acid.

Review of Related Literature According to Doctor Sergey stated that vinegar have lots of electronic magnet cells that can because electricity will small megabytes. During the experimentation, the researchers found out that 4 pieces of calamodins are enough to light a certain bulb. It is also found out that a coin which is hot copper and copper wires are not the appropriate materials in making the experiment. Instead of the materials mentioned used the copper coin and alligator wire. The galvanized nail also matter in lightning the bulb. Use the 1.5 inches galvanized nail to balanced the flow of the current.
Statement of the Problem
