Write the balanced equation for the reaction of acetic acid ( cooh 3ch ) and sodium bicarbonate ( 3 nahco ). what type of reaction(s) took place

Reaction of acetic acid and sodium bicarbonate :

CH₃COOH + NaHCO₃ = CH₃COONa + CO₂ + H₂O

It is a neutralization reaction , When the acetic acid is mixed bicarbonate solution, the ions H3O⁺ acid neutralize OH⁻ ions (-) bicarbonate equilibrium, shifting the equilibrium to the right bicarbonate in order to H₂CO₃ formation. This acid after formed, decomposes, releasing CO₂ .Therefore, the reaction acetic acid and sodium bicarbonate, there is the effervescence of the solution due to the release of CO2 .

hope this helps!

Heat is involved in chemical change in two ways; chemical changes either result in heat being added to or removed from an object, and chemical changes require a certain amount of heat before they can take place.
