yes. baking soda will absorb moisture
To make baking powder from baking soda at home, mix 1 part baking soda with 2 parts cream of tartar. This combination will act as a leavening agent in your baking recipes.
Baking powder contains a combination of baking soda, an acid like cream of tartar and a moisture absorber like cornstarch. it just helps lift up what ever it is you are baking
To make baking soda at home, you need to mix together sodium hydroxide and carbon dioxide gas. This reaction creates sodium bicarbonate, which is baking soda.

Baking soda can be used to control acidity in swimming pools. Baking soda controls the Total Alkalinity Soda ash raises the pH or reduces the acidity.
Store baking soda in a cool, dry place away from moisture and odors to keep it fresh and effective.
