Why sodium carbonate solution is alkaline in nature?

Sodium carbonate solution is alkaline because of the carbonate ion. Sodium ions do not change the pH. However, carbonate, being the conjugate base of a weak acid (carbonic acid/hydrogen carbonate) does affect the pH. The carbonate ions can abstract a proton to form hydrogen carbonate, HCO3-. When the proton is abstracted from water, hydroxide ions form which results in a higher pH (more basic).

What two substances would react with an acid to produce carbon dioxide gas?

Vinegar is a solution of a carboxylic acid (acetic acid) which means that most metal compounds (particulaly alkaline metal compounds found in group 1 in the periodic table) will react with it to produce salts, carbon dioxide and water. Sodium Carbonate is a common example of a alkaline metal compound that reacts readily with vinegar.
