Is Acetone An Acid

Is acetone an acid or a base? ۔

Well, I work in science and nowhere do I know if acetone is an acid or a base ... please help someone.

update

Oh, and it's also a molecular or ionic compound.

Acetone is propanone. So this is an initial property. Molecular formula: C3H7OH

It is an ionic compound (electropositive C3H7, negative OH)

Is acetone an acid or a base?

Well, I work in science and nowhere do I know if acetone is an acid or a base ... please help someone.

Acetone is a basis because oxygen in the carbonyl group provides a pair of electrons when a nucleophile is present, and it is the ability of the hydrogen atom to accept the nucleophile. When such a reaction occurs, Alcl is formed.

Acetone is a nonionic polar compound, but it is soluble in water because oxygen in the CN can participate in hydrogen bonds.

Need more clarification?

Acetone is considered to be very, acid is one of them ... but look what I found!
It is mostly sour. All carbonyl compounds are acidic on their alpha carbon.
Also, it is clear that this is a molecule whose bonds are all compatible.
***
I agree that oxygen can (and will) be a good Lewis base, but I still think alpha carbon is more acidic than oxygen, which is basic.
