    Acetic acid is basically known as CH_3COOH.

    Chemical Equation:-

    \boxed{\sf {CH_3COOH\atop Acetic\:acid}+{KOH\atop Potassium\:Hydroxide}\longrightarrow {CH_3COOK\atop Potassium\: Acetate}+{H_2O\atop Water}}

    • This kinda reaction is called Neutralization Reaction.

    Solution:-2

    \boxed{\sf {HCN\atop Hydrogen\:Cyanate}+{Na_2CO_3\atop Sodium\:Carbonate}\longrightarrow {NaCN\atop Sodium\:Cyanate}+{H_2O\atop water}+{CO_2\atop Carbon\:dioxide}}

    • Hydro cyanic acid is also called HydrogenCyanate.
