No, baking soda cannot substitute for baking soda because they are the same thing. Baking soda is just another name for sodium bicarbonate.
No
Yep.
cakes with baking soda and cakes without are the same.
Yes.
No, you cannot use cream of tarter in place of baking soda because baking soda is made up of cream of tarter. Hope this helps!

i dont know bou i do know that i am a former chef and Serena is on the right track, if you do not have cream of tarter, use 1 teaspoon of soda and 2 teaspoons of cornstarch, all baking powder is 60% baking soda, 20% cream of tarter and 20% cornstarch. So you can make you own or use what you have, if you use straight soda then use one 1/3 of the recipes requested amount.
I am assuming you are out of baking powder? If you have baking soda and cream of tarter, you can substitute that - 2 parts cream of tarter to 1 part baking soda. Use the resulting powder in the proportions the recipe calls for. Alternatively, you can beat your egg whites in the recipe (I might add an additional egg white for extra leavening) and fold them into the yolk/milk/flour mixture. Or you could just make crepes - omitting the baking powder and making a denser, flat pancake, a la Paris!
Baking soda and eating soda are not the same. Baking soda is an ingredient that is found in baking recipes.
Baking powder is baking soda with cream of tartar added to it.
Mix 2 parts cream of tartar with 1 part baking soda. For example, mix 2 tsp cream of tartar with 1 tsp baking soda.
Aeration systems in cakes are a neutralisation reaction. Acid + Base = Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide The base is almost always Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking soda/Bicarbonate of Soda). When used on its own its called "Baking Soda" The acid changes dependant on the characteristics wanted from the leavening system. Quick acting / Slow acting / delayed action / double action etc. In Baking powder the acid is potassium hydrogen tartrate (Cream of Tarter) Both Sodium Bicarbonate and Cream of tarter with a little cornstarch are the componants of baking powder. Both will give very different products ans are used at different dosages, used correctly the correct raising agent can help with not just the height of the product but also the texture/flavour and also the colour.
If you do not have cream of tartar, baking powder will work just as well, or better. If the recipe calls for both cream of tartar and baking soda, leave out the soda if you use baking powder - it already has soda in it.
the ingredients of baking powder are baking soda and cream of tartar. So baking powder has less baking soda per amount.
It's just bicarbonate of soda. No other ingredients. Baking powder has soda and cream of tartar in it.
Baking powder is a "leavening agent" that makes cakes rise. Baking soda and cream of tartar together do the same job -- they react to make carbon dioxide gas. If you try to make cupcakes without either baking soda, or the combination of baking soda and cream of tartar, your cupcakes will not rise and you will get something close to cookies. Corn starch is a thickener and acts similarly to flour. If you have flour, corn starch may not be necessary.
