write the balanced equation for the reaction of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) What type of reaction took place?

Respuesta :

balanced chemical equation :

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 = CH3COONa + CO2 + H2O

this is a double displacement reaction !

Acid-base neutralization reaction:

When an acid is reacted with base creating water or solvent and an ionic salt, the reaction is known as Acid-base neutralization reaction.

For example:

HCl+ NaOH = NaCl+ H2O

Acid  base   salt  water  

the balanced equation for the reaction of acetic acid (CH3COOH) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3)  is as follows:

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 = CH3COONa + CO2 + H2O

Acid  base   salt     water  

It is an example of Acid-base neutralization reaction
