Actually Sodium bicarbonate NAHCO3 is prepared using: (a lot of CO2 dissolved in water). CO2 dissolved in water is in equilibrium with carbonic acid H2 CO3 (weak acid, dissociates into H+ and HCO3-.
unbalanced equations are:
Na OH + H2O + CO2 => Na HCO3 + H2 O
Or, Na OH + H2 CO3 => Na HCO3 + H2 O
============================
same way:
Na OH + H2 SO4 => Na HSO4 + H2 O
Sodium hydroxide and Sulfuric acid to prepare Sodium bisulfate.
