Answer 2

Answer:

Baking Powder is important in bakeries. This is because,

When Baking Powder is mixed with Small amount of weak acid such as Tartaric acid, it reacts to form soft compound out of the dough mixed as well as release CO₂ gas to make the cake softer and easy to eat.

The reaction is as follows:

NaHCO₃ + [ H⁺ ] ions from any acid → Sodium salt of the acid + CO₂

This is the reason why bakeries have a crucial importance in the production of Baking Powder.
