How will the vinegar and baking soda explode?

Vinegar and baking soda are different in nature. Vinegar is acidic in nature (which means that when added to water, it gives out H+/Hydrogen ion) and Baking soda is basic in nature (which means that when added to water, it gives out OH-/Hydroxide ion). When these two chemically combine (or are even mixed together through common physical means) they form salt and water and many bubbles. This reaction is called neutralization reaction. Here is a chemical formula:- NaOH + Hcl = (forms) Nacl + H20 base acid salt water
