List two observations which you make when you add a pinch of sodium hydrogen carbonate to acetic acid in a test tube. Write the chemical equation for the reaction that occurs.
When a pinch of sodium hydrogen .carbonate is added to acetic acid in a testube, two observations are made-
(i) Brisk effervescence
(ii) Evolution of a colorless and odorless gas which is CO2.
CH3COOH (aq) + NaHCO3 (s) → CH3 COONa (aq) + H2O (l) + CO2 (g)
