Baking soda will react chemically with vinegar, so cleaning a vinegar spill with baking soda will, if sufficient baking soda is applied, react with all the vinegar and completely eliminate all that vinegar and its smell. The "active ingredient" in vinegar is acetic acid, which is CH3COOH, and its mixed in with water. Baking soda is NaHCO3. The reaction is as follows: CH3COOH + NaHCO3 => NaC2H3O2 + H2CO3

Why water and a sponge would not be effective in cleaning up a grease spill?
Water and a sponge would not be effective in cleaning up a grease spill because grease is not soluble in water, so water alone will not be able to break down the grease. Additionally, a sponge would not be able to absorb the grease because it is not designed to absorb oil-based substances. Instead, a degreasing cleaner or absorbent material such as baking soda or cat litter would be more effective in cleaning up a grease spill.
Why using a base such as baking soda is effective in cleaning up a spill of an acid?
Baking soda, a base, reacts with acids to form water and a salt, neutralizing the acidic properties. The reaction helps to reduce the corrosive nature of the spill and prevent further damage to surfaces. Additionally, the abrasive nature of baking soda can help physically remove the spilled acid from surfaces.
If spilling occurs what do you do?
You neutralize base spill with vinegar before attempting to wipe up.
Which is more effective baking soda or salt?
It depends what you're trying to do. If you're wanting some baked goods to rise during cooking then salt will have no effect at all. Dry salt will clean baked on food from a frying pan but baking soda is better for a far greater range of cleaning tasks. Salt is good for putting immediately on a red wine spill. With regard to taste, salt is more versatile as baking soda has quite a soapy sensation in the mouth
