Add a good amount of hydrochloric acid (HCl) to it!
Sodium Carbonate has the formula: Na2CO3
and Sodium Hydroxide has the formula: NaOH
look what happens when we add HCl to each
Na2CO3(Sodium Carbonate) + 2HCl ---> 2NaCl + H2O + CO2
* the CO2 in that equation is carbon dioxide, a gas. So your solution will bubble with these carbon dioxide gas bubble. But be careful! The 2 in front of the HCl in that equation means you have to add enough HCl for the carbon dioxide to form or else nothing will happen, so be generous with it :).
Now for the Sodium Hydroxide
NaOH + HCl ---> H2O + NaCl
* this equation only produces water (H2O) and dissolved salt (NaCl). So there will be no bubbling in this reaction.

Answer:
White phosphorus reacts with caustic soda to give phosphine and sodium hypo phosphate. White phosphorus reacts mainly with oxygen in the water and may stay in water for a period of hours to days.
