Question

write the chemical name of backing soda what happens when it is heated how is baking powder prepared why do we use baking powder instead of baking soda in preparing cake​

Answer 1

chemical name for backing soda is sodium bicarbonate....

when it is heated, a decomposition reaction takes place to give sodium carbonate ,water and carbon dioxide

baking powder is prepared by adding edible acid(such as tartaric acid) to baking powder

we use baking powder instead of baking soda as the reaction in making baking powder leads to formation of CO2 that rises the dough n makes cake spongy. .

hope it helps u... plz mark brainliest if yes
