The difference is only the baking powder - baking powder gives off carbon dioxide when heated/cooked - hence the mixture made using it rises during cooking.


Is sodium bicarbonate and baking power is one and the same?

Baking Soda and Baking Powder are different. Both use the active ingredient Sodium Bicarbonate which gives of carbon dioxide gas when mixed with an acid (this is what creates the leavening during cooking). Baking Soda is pure Sodium Bicarbonate, which immediately reacts with an acid giving off carbon dioxide. Baking Powder is Sodium bicarbonate with an acidifying agent already added (cream of Tartar) along with a starch to keep it dry and from reacting. An advantage to baking powder is its ability to sit out before being cooked and still releasing the necessary gas during the cooking process. Hope this helps :)


How are baking powder and baking soda different?

Both of them are baking soda, which is a chemical that makes baked foods light and fluffy when it comes into contact with acid in the food. Baking powder, which contains an acid, is used when the food doesn't have enough acid to activate the baking soda. It's not recommended, but I've used baking powder in recipes that called for baking soda and it worked well. The opposite is not true--if the recipe calls for baking powder, there's not enough acid in there to kick off baking soda and eating the product will be like chewing on a rock.

With this list of possible powders salt chalk sugar wheat flour cornstarch baking powder baking soda how can you identify 4 unknown powders using water vinegar liquid iodine?

Baking soda is pure sodium bicarbonate Baking powder contains sodium bicarbonate, but it includes starch Iodine will give a blue color to wheat flour cornstarch baking powder Vinegar will cause baking powder baking soda and chalk to gas and give of CO2 Add water to all. salt - completely soluble - clear solution. With a small amount of water - will not completely dissolve - will get saturated. baking soda - completely soluble - clear solution sugar - completely soluble - clear solution. With a small amount of water will still completely dissolve unlike salt. wheat flower - white pasty mix gradually, under repeated mixing pressure and as water is added, it is both plastic and elastic. cornstarch - white pasty mix - thickens and becomes like glue. baking powder - mainly soluble but some pasty milky mix chalk - insoluble Thus chalk will be identified as the material which gases with vinegar, is insoluble in water but does not turn blue with iodine. Baking powder will be identified as the material which is mainly soluble, gives gas off with vinegar and yet turns blue with iodine Baking Soda will be identified as being completely soluble and yet gases with vinegar but does not turn blue with iodine. Wheat flour and Corn Starch will turn blue with iodine, will not gas with vinegar but behave differently in water and thus can be identified.
