Best Answer

There are two possible outcomes depending on how much of each is mixed. Washing soda is sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) while vinegar is acetic acid (CH3CO2H) in water. If there is more washing soda than acetic acid then the products will be sodium acetate (NaCH3CO2) and sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), also known as baking soda. The reaction will have no visible effect, though there will be a slight increase in temperature.

If there is more acetic acid than sodium carbonate, ideally at least twice as much, then the products will be sodium acetate, water, and carbon dioxide. The mixture will bubble vigorously.

What gets produced when you mix vinegar and baking soda?

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).


How do vinegar and baking soda combine chemically?

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.

What will happen if someone mixxes red cabbage in a blender and then added some water and baking soda and vinegar?

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.
