Can you combine baking soda and baking powder to cup cake and what is amount of two?
Baking soda is already an ingredient of baking powder so by mixing the two you would be simply changing the proportion of baking soda to baking powder. It will make no real difference to the outcome if you make up the volume of raising agent the recipe calls for with any proportion of baking powder to baking soda. As a safeguard you may like to add a teaspoon of white vinegar or a tablespoon of yoghurt or buttermilk to a cupcake recipe made with baking soda - the acid in the vinegar/yoghurt/buttermilk will react with the Soda to release carbon dioxide which will make you cupcakes rise.

Which make pancakes rise baking soda or baking powder?
There is moisture within the cake batter before it is baked. This comes mostly frow water, but also from milk and eggs and oil. As the cake is baked, the heat rises. This causes the moisture in the cake batter to turn to steam. Steam rises, but there is no place for it to escape. This causes the cake to puff up. Also, when the liquid cake batter cooks into a solid, it does naturally expand slightly, too.
