carbon dioxide produced during the reaction causes bread or cake to rise making them soft and spongy .
eq. = NaHCO3 +H[ from any acid ] <arrow> Co2 + H2O + sodium salt of acid ..

Explanation:

Baking powder contains baking soda and yeast, acts as a leavening agent that causes batter to rise, when baked.  

Baking powder do the chemical reaction, when we add the baking powder with the flour, during the reaction carbon dioxide gets trap into dough and bubbles out, it causes the cakes softy and spongy.  

When we add exact amount of baking powder with the enough quantity of mixture, it gives the great texture to cake.

The reaction between baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) \left(\mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}\right) and cream of tartar \left(K H C_{4} H_{4} O_{6}\right) is:

\mathrm{NaHCO}_{3}+\mathrm{KHC}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{4} \mathrm{O}_{6} \rightarrow \mathrm{KN}_{a} \mathrm{C}_{4} \mathrm{H}_{4} \mathrm{O}_{6}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+\mathrm{CO}_{2}
