Then add a few drops of food coloring and liquid soap. Stir thoroughly. Then add acetic acid to the mixture. Watch the volcano erupt! • Processes description • Baking soda is sodium bicarbonate. It reacts with acetic acid with the release of carbon dioxide. The gas makes the liquid soap froth, and the volcano erupts! • NaHCO₃ + CH₃COOH = CH₃COONa + CO₂ + H₂O
