Vinegar (acetic acid) has the formula CH3COOH and Baking Soda (sodium bicarbonate) has the formula NaHCO3. These combine in an acid-base reaction (neutralization reaction) to form CH3COONa (sodium acetate) and H2CO3 (carbonic acid), the latter of which decomposes to form H2O and CO2. The CO2 is the reason why there is bubbling and fizzing when the two combine.
"How does the ratio of baking soda to vinegar affect the height of the eruption in a baking soda and vinegar volcano experiment?"
Baking soda and vinegar create a chemical reaction when mixed together. When the two substances combine, they produce carbon dioxide gas, which leads to fizzing and bubbling. Epsom salt and vinegar do not typically react with each other in the same way.
You will get a frothy red mess. The baking soda and vinegar will combine to produce carbon dioxide as the acid in the vinegar combines with the base in the baking soda. The red cabbage will will make it colorful, and the water will slow the reaction. On the other hand, red cabbage and vinegar will make a nice pickled cabbage.
To create a homemade volcano eruption, you can use a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Place some baking soda in the volcano crater, and then pour vinegar into the crater. The reaction between the baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and vinegar (acetic acid) will create carbon dioxide gas, leading to the eruption. You can also add red food coloring to the vinegar for a more visually appealing eruption.
I'm thinking that if you try to put more baking soda (twice the baking soda or try the same with vinegar).
Baking soda is sodium hydrogen carbonate - NaHCO3. Vinegar is a water solution of acetic acid - CH3COOH.
Baking soda will react chemically with vinegar, so cleaning a vinegar spill with baking soda will, if sufficient baking soda is applied, react with all the vinegar and completely eliminate all that vinegar and its smell. The "active ingredient" in vinegar is acetic acid, which is CH3COOH, and its mixed in with water. Baking soda is NaHCO3. The reaction is as follows: CH3COOH + NaHCO3 => NaC2H3O2 + H2CO3
Vinegar (CH3COOH) and baking soda (NaHCO3) combine to form (I don't know the names) CH3COONa + H2CO3. The H2CO3 decomposes into carbon dioxide and water. (CO2 + H2O).

The ideal ratio of vinegar to baking soda for creating a chemical reaction in a baking soda and vinegar experiment is 1:1.
baking soda and vinegar put the baking soda in first
The ideal ratio of baking soda to vinegar for a successful chemical reaction in a baking soda and vinegar experiment is 1:1.
Baking Soda and Vinegar combinedmake a fizzing reaction when the Acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda).
The ideal ratio of baking soda to vinegar for creating a chemical reaction in a baking soda and vinegar volcano experiment is 1:1.
"How does the ratio of baking soda to vinegar affect the height of the eruption in a baking soda and vinegar volcano experiment?"
The more vinegar to baking soda, the better. I only tested up to 1 part baking soda/5 parts vinegar. Also, add the baking soda to the vinegar, not the other way around.
Baking Soda and Vinegar combinedmake a fizzing reaction when the Acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda).Jr high science projectnot sure on what you are asking but putting the two together will make it explode
