Answer is: because acetic acid dissociates in water and form positive and negative ions, acetic acid is electrolyte.
Acetic acid dissociate in aqueous solution to form hydrogen ions (H⁺) and acetic anion (CH₃COO⁻).
Balanced chemical reaction (dissociation):
CH₃COOH(aq) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).

Answer:  Ions are conductive

Explanation:  Acetic Acid is a strong electrolyte which in dissolution in aqueous solutions can produce its respective positive and negative species in the form of ions.

When Acetic Acid dissolves -

        [tex]CH_{3} COOH + H_{2}O \rightleftharpoons  CH_{3} COO^{^{-}} + H_{3}O^{+}[/tex]

Thus the cations and anions are responsible for the conduction of electric current as in ionic solutions, ions can move freely when dissociated in the solution .
