sodium salt- sodium acetate (CH3COONa)
Gas-CO2
Testing of gas produced-
pass the gas through lime water the lime water turns to milky. This symbolises that the gas evolved is CO2. Passing more CO2 through lime water turns it into a colourless solution.
The brisk effervescene also test the presence of CO2 gas.
