Answer:
Carbon dioxide is the gas evolved.
Explanation:
When we add acetic acid to sodium bicarbonate, sodium acetate, water and carbon dioxide gas is formed according to the following reaction:
NaHCO₃ + CH₃COOH -----> CH₃COONa + H₂O + CO₂
Tests for the gas evolved:
=> The gas is absorbed by rod dipped in KOH.
=> The gas turns moist blue litmus paper faint red.
=> The gas turns lime water milky.
=> When the gas is bubbled through yellow nitric acid, the solution becomes colourless.
