First show your work before we try to help you. What do you know about net ionic equations?

Begin by breaking each reactant into their ions.  You will have to try to understand what C2H3O2 actually is, and how it will ionize.  They way you've written it, it can be any molecule.  Also, try to follow the capitalization and superscript rules for writing chemical compounds, those rule really do help people understand what's being written.
