CH3COOH + Na2CO3 → 2CH3COONa + H2O + CO2
Sodium carbonate                                 Water       Carbondioxide
CH3COOH + NaHCO3→​CH3COONa + H2O + CO2
                 Sodium hydrogen                Water       Carbondioxide
                 Carbonate
CH3COOH + NaOH→ CH3COONa + H2O
               Sodium hydroxide                Water
2CH3COOH + 2 Na→ CH3COONa + H2 ↑
                     Sodium                         Hydrogen gas
