Solution

The correct options are
C NaHCO3
D Na2CO3
Dilute acetic acid was added to the four test tubes containing the following chemicals. Brisk effervescence was observed in the test tubes containing NaHCO3,Na2CO3. This is because an acid reacts with metal carbonate and metal bicarbonate to evolve carbon-dioxide gas with brisk effervescence.

CH3COOH(aq)+NaHCO3(aq)CH3COONa(aq)H2O+CO2(g)

2CH3COOH(aq)+Na2CO32CH3COONa(aq)+CO2(g)+H2O.

Hence options C and D are correct.
