Baking soda
Baking soda is essentially tasteless. The flavor won't be affected much either way. However, i wouldn't recommend baking them without soda because it alters the baking process. If you don't want to put baking soda in, I suggest just eating the dough.
Baking soda is an alkaline compound that can only be separated chemically.Baking powder however is a mixture of baking soda and an inert starch, usually cornstarch. Cornstarch absorbs moisture in the baking powder, prolonging shelf life and preventing premature reactions in the baking soda. Baking soda and cornstarch can be separated using conventional means, as it is not a compound.
You can add some baking powder, but it's not an ideal substitute; baking powder is a mixture of bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and cream of tartar. This means you need to add slightly more than is baking powder than the quantity suggested for baking soda; usually around 1/4 teaspoon on top of the quantity suggested for bicarb.

i usually use baking powder, not baking soda
You should not use baking soda to brush your dog's teeth. Humans may use baking soda because we know not to swallow it, but dogs will inevitably swallow some amount of it and may swallow more than is safe.
Usually for baking.
No, baking soda cannot replace baking powder in all recipes because baking powder includes a acidic ingredient along with baking soda and certain salts that cause batter or dough to rise. Baking soda is purely alkaline, and requires the addition of some type of acidic ingredient in the recipe to produce the proper rise. Different recipes are formulated for either baking soda or baking powder.I suppose you could, but the recipe will probably taste terrible - and the crust won't rise.
Ordinary baking Soda usually will if slightly damp, but usually this never works unless the balloon is REALLY staticy....
In most kinds of baking - it's the easiest form of flour to bake with (light, rises easily, retains moisture, relatively tasteless, easy to shape). Cakes (large and small), pastries, breads, buns, cookies, muffins, breakfast goods etc... are all usually made from white wheat flour.
Usually, yes.
Baking powder usually is just bicarbonate of soda, that is, baking soda, mixed with an acid. The baking soda and the acid together produce carbon dioxide and acts as a leavening agent.
no but usually there is alternatives like oils you can substitute instead of baking powder
NO, baking mix usually has baking powder or baking soda in it and sometimes milk solids plus flour of coarse.
Baking powder is a rising agent, designed to make breads and cakes soft and fluffy. This is usually not desired in cookies.
