The reason in science demonstrations at schools, vinegar and baking soda are used is that when these two ingredients are mixed, carbon dioxide gas is produced very rapidly. This makes the vinegar and anything else mixed in with it froth up and expand. This causes the "eruption" of the volcano.
An alternative approach may be to use diet cola and the mint candy known as "Mentos" as demonstrated on the US Discovery channel program "Mythbusters".
The mentos are covered in lots of small dimples. When a mento is dropped into diet cola, these dimples act as points of nucleation for the dissolved carbon dioxide in the cola meaning that bubbles form at these points. This causes lots of gas to be released very rapidly (just as if you'd shaken up the bottle of cola and taken the lid off).
Apparently the mint flavoured mentos are required for this to work (as they are covered in the tiny dimples whereas other flavours have different coatings which do not have the dimples).
This may be a suitable method of creating your volcanic eruption demonstration.

Baking soda or any carbonate.
To make a volcano without a water bottle it is best to get a kit. I have made one with a really tiny bowl, too, but it doesn't work as well without a bottle of some sort. It is easiest to get a step by step kit to help you with it.
Mixing cold vinegar with baking soda will result in a smaller reaction compared to using room temperature vinegar. This is because the reaction between baking soda and vinegar is exothermic, meaning it produces heat. Warmer vinegar provides more energy for the reaction, leading to a more vigorous fizzing reaction.
Red food colouring, Vinegar, and Baking Soda.
You can buy vinegar and Baking soda and make a reaction.
I think use coke not diet and mentos
baking soda and vinegar put the baking soda in first
vinegar
open a coke bottle to fast.
baking soda and vinegar
No, but it depends on what kind of bubbles you are trying to make. Soap bubbles aren't made out of water and baking soda. You can add baking soda to vinegar and create bubbles, as you've seen in fake volcanoes.
Yes I Do Jow Bout You
Add vinegar
to make it taste better
vinegar and baking powder :)

Mixing vinegar and baking soda sodium acetate is obtained and carbon dioxide is released.
