Answer 1

Answer:

Pls mark me as brainliest  

Explanation:

(i) The cake will taste bitter ---- Because baking powder is a mixture of baking soda and tartaric acid and since there is no tartaric acid available to neutralize sodium carbonate formed, the cake will taste bitter.

(ii) Baking soda can be converted to baking powder by adding appropriate amount of tartaric acid.

(iii) When tartaric acid is added to baking soda, the role of tartaric acid is to neutralize sodium carbonate formed from the reaction.

Answer 2

Answer:

If baking soda is used for making cake in place of baking powder, then cake will taste bitter since there is no tartaric acid available to neutralise sodium carbonate formed.

NaHCO

heat

NaCOHOCO2NaHCO3→heatNa2CO3+H2O+CO2

Baking soda can be converted to baking powder by adding appropriate amount of tartaric acid.

Tartaric acid as pointed above will react with sodium carbonate which makes cake bitter. This means that the cake will not taste bitter.
