Baking powder is typically used to make cakes rise. Baking powder is essentially, baking soda with an additional acid. When it reacts, it breaks down into carbon dioxide, water, and salt. The carbon dioxide causes bubbles in the cake mix, allowing the cake to rise.

∙ 10y agoSelf raising flour.
Self raising flour has a small amount of "baking soda" (Sodium Bicarbonate aka bicarbonate of soda) added. This combines with acidic ingredients in the cake mix to produce millions of tiny carbon dioxide bubbles, which cause the cake to "rise".
There is also a small amount of tartaric acid to ensure that it rises even if there are no acidic ingredients.
