  1. Go to the nearest grocery store.
  2. Buy some baking soda and some vinegar.
  3. Proceed in the usual way.

Seriously, baking soda and vinegar are among the commonest, cheapest substances I can think of. If you don't have them, and can't get them, I see little point in attempting to make an exhaustive list of more esoteric substances on the off chance you might have those lying around.

I can generally tell you that any carbonate and any acid will exhibit the same basic reaction.

ans2. But this experiment may be dangerous. If it were a glass bottle the danger of exploding glass fragments is pretty obvious. Even with plastic bottles, the bottle wall may fracture into sharp edged shards. which locally have done serious damage.

A vinegar bomb reacts with baking soda to create gas which causes the explosion. Vinegar is one of the few chemicals at home that contains acid that could do that job. If for some reason you don't have vinegar, try hydrochloric acid drain cleaner.
