When you add baking soda to buttermilk, the pH level increases. Baking soda is basic (alkaline), so it raises the pH of the acidic buttermilk. This reaction helps to neutralize the acid in the buttermilk.
An example of a alkaline liquid would be: human blood sea water baking soda A liquid that is always considered to be base (or alkaline) is milk. Mil has a pH of 6.6 being one of the least acidic liquids but is still acidic
Baking soda is alkaline.
Add an alkaline (base) to it. Examples: Soda Ash, Baking Soda
There is no specific thing. The chemical reaction is a result of the alkaline baking soda and the acidic vinegar neutralising each other.
Fruit salt is primaily a combination of citric acid and baking soda, and is often used as an antacid. It's alkaline

The acidic vinegar neutralises the alkaline baking soda and in the process it all bubbles up and fizzes producing a gas... I can't remember if it's Hydrogen or Oxygen though!
No, Baking Soda or Sodium Bicarbonate is not an acid. It is alkaline
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.
Odors usually stem from acidic substances (more than likely lactic acid in the fridge). Sometimes they can come from less acidic and more alkaline substances like rotten meat. What baking soda does is neutralize the pH of these odors. Baking soda is pure bicarbonate which lowers the pH acidic substances and raises the pH in alkaline substances. Since odors are acidic and basic (meaning the pH level is either high or low, respectively), neutralizing their pH masks the odor. The odor is technically still there, but now the odor's pH level is neutral, making it to where you cannot smell it anymore.
