Vinegar is mainly made up of H2O and is not a substance, therefore does not have a chemical formula on its own. The small percentage 4-8% of diluted acetic acid mixed with water, has the chemical formula CH3COOH or HC2H3O2.
Sodium carbonate, chemical compound, Na2CO3, soluble in water and very slightly soluble in alcohol. Pure sodium carbonate is a white, odorless powder that absorbs moisture from the air, has an alkaline taste, and forms a strongly alkaline water solution. It is one of the most basic industrial chemicals. Sodium carbonate decahydrate, Na2CO3·10H2O, is a colorless, transparent crystalline compound commonly called sal soda or washing soda.

Washing powder is sodium carbonate Na2CO3. Vinegar is produced by fermentation of ethanol and contains acetic acid, CH3COOH.
