A common acid-base reaction that you can do at home uses vinegar (acetic acid, CH3COOH) and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3) to produce carbon dioxide gas and water (among other things). The balanced chemical equation is shown below: CH3COOH + NaHCO3 --> H2O + CO2 + Na+ + CH3COO- Typical concentration of acetic acid in vinegar = 0.85 M How many grams of baking soda would it take to completely neutralize 75 mL of vinegar
