Washing soda (Sodium Carbonate) is basic in nature. It acts as an alkali because when dissolved in water, it dissociates into the weak acid: carbonic acid and the strong alkali: sodium hydroxide.

This gives sodium carbonate in solution the ability to attack metals such as aluminium with the release of hydrogen gas....
