Citric acid is a crystalline compound. Acids unlock H+ ions whilst they dissolve in water so the reaction can in trouble-free terms start up whilst water is extra. Sodium hydrogencarbonate reacts with acids to offer carbon dioxide consequently the fizz. Citric acid has the formulation C6O7H9 which has 3 carboxylic communities(acidic communities) which ionise in water as follows - COOH -> COO^- + H^+(aq) sodium hydrogencarbonate NaHCO3(aq) -> Na+(aq) + HCO3^-(aq) ........................................... + HCO3^- --> H2O(l) + CO2(g) desire this helps
