The acetic acid in vinegar reacts with the baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, a base) to form carbonic acid and sodium acetate. The gas, or carbon dioxide is what makes the balloon inflate. Adding more vinegar will add more reactants going into the reaction, so more gas will be produced and cause the balloon to become more inflated.
