Solution

The correct option is B

CH3COONa,CO2,H2O


Acetic acid reacts with carbonates or

hydrogen carbonates to give

corresponding salts, water and carbon dioxide.

Carbon dioxide is the gas that turns

lime water milky.
2CH3COOH+Na2CO32CH3COONa+H2O+CO2 reaction I


The following reaction gives the products

if CH3COOH reacts with NaHCO3.
CH3COOH+NaHCO3CH3COONa+H2O+CO2 reaction II

The reaction II takes place as an

intermediate reaction for the reaction I

to take place.
