  1. Sodium acetate is CH3COONa and acetic acid is CH3COOH.

    If we mix these two compounds there is no reaction but a buffer solution is formed ( weak acid + its conjugate base)


  2. balanced equation is that when the number of reaction and the number product molecules should be equal.


  3. 2CH3COOH + Na2CO3 --> 2NaCH3COO + CO2 + H2O  

  4. Are you sure that you want the equation for sodium acetate and acetic acid? There is no reaction. This mixture forms a pH buffer with pH range from 3.7-5.6 depending on the ratios of the two substances.

  5. 2CH3COOH + Na2CO3 = 2NaCH3COO + CO2 + H2O
