Science Project: Acid and Base Reaction

What happens when you mix vinegar (acid) and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate which is a base).

Look isn't science exciting...?

We owe all we know to Mr. Norhaus.

So vinegar and baking soda makes carbon dioxide?

Holy fuck. Mind blown.

I love the laughter at the end!  :-)

When you mix an acid (they neutralise each other with a base it realses a hydrogen gas + water + salt (the one you eat.) Obvisiously Vinegar and baking soda is one of the most reactive experiments in this topic.

Fucking awesome! When it exploded, thats what it looks like in my pants. i jizzed, in otherwords, cause i just fucked my hand

wow...

[pyropakman]

Vinegar is Acetic Acid: CH3COOH

Baking Soda is Sodium Bicarbonate: NaHCO3

When they combine, they switch partners to make sodium acetate: NaCH3COO

and carbonic acid: H2CO3.

Carbonic acid is highly unstable, and quickly decomposes to water and carbon dioxide.

Full reaction:

CH3COOH + NaHCO3---> NaCH3COO + CO2+ H2O

I need the explanation such the formula or equation, chemically...

but, thx a lot anyway...
