CHOOH

Is there a specific reason why CHOOH or CH3COOH is written with two OO's and not O2??

It's just how the structure is (one O has a double bond, the other is a single bond with an attached hydrogen). I think it might have something to do with its functions, but I could be wrong. I hope this helps a little. :)
