Solution and Explanation

1) Neutralization with Bases (forms salt + water)

\[ \mathrm{CH_3COOH + NaOH \;\longrightarrow\; CH_3COONa + H_2O} \]

2) Reaction with Carbonates/Bicarbonates (effervescence of CO\(_2\))

\[ \mathrm{2\,CH_3COOH + Na_2CO_3 \;\longrightarrow\; 2\,CH_3COONa + H_2O + CO_2 \uparrow} \] \[ \mathrm{CH_3COOH + NaHCO_3 \;\longrightarrow\; CH_3COONa + H_2O + CO_2 \uparrow} \]
