Question

While baking a cake at home, a lady added baking soda in place of baking powder. What do you think will happen?

Answer 1

Answer:

Baking powder is a mixture of baking soda and a mild acid. ... But it only happens if there is acid present in the batter to react with the baking soda. If the cake batter with baking soda is not naturally acidic, then adding an acid will allow the carbon dioxide to form.

Answer 2

Answer:

Baking soda releases carbondoxide when mixed with an acid.If this happens in the cake the batter will become lighter and softer and also causes small bubbles.
