"When the two ingredients are mixed, hydrogen ions ( H+) from the vinegar react with the bicarbonate ions (HCO3- ) from the baking soda to form a new chemical called carbonic acid (H2CO3).

H+ + HCO3- ---> H2CO3

The carbonic acid thus formed then immediately decomposes into carbon dioxide gas (CO2)and water (H2O)."

(Yes, copy+paste is unoriginal...)

Vinegar is a dilute form of acetic acid an baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. The reaction between those is endothermic and it produces Sodium Acetate, water and carbon dioxide, as in the following equation:

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 ----> CH3COONa + H2O + CO2
