'nahco2' Never heard of it!!!!. I think you mean 'NaHCO3' , which is the chemical formula for sodium bi-carbonte, or sodium hydrogen carbonate. Commercially, and domestically it is known as 'baking powder'.

NB When writing chmeical formula

#1 Single letter symbol are always CAPITAL letter. e,g, Carbon (C)

#2 A two letter symbol is written ; first letter is a capital letter m abd the second letter is small/lower case. e.g. Sodium (Na) .

NNB The number after the letter indicates the number of atoms of the previous element present. . For carbonates it is [---CO3). '2' only refers to Carbon Dioxide.

So 'nahco2' should be written as 'NaHCO3'.

Why does vinegar make baking soda fizz?

What happens is a chemical reaction. Vinagar - acetic acid Baking soda - sodium bicarbonate you are producing sodium acetate with water if you keep adding more vinegar on the baking soda (search "hot ice" on google) note that vinager is not pure but only 5 percent acetic acid the rest is water. for the best fizz use 1200 grams of vineager and 84 grams of NaHCO2 (baking soda) this is one mole of each obviously you can change the proportions. The reason this makes a perfect reaction is because that makes one C2H4O2 molecule react with every NaHCO2 molecule. The bi-products are CO2 H2O and NaC2H2O2
