Carbon dioxide (CO2).

If you not sure if the white powder in for your next recipe is baking soda or baking powder, give them a taste. Both are safe, the baking soda will have a slightly bitter taste, while the powder will have a neutral flavor.
By measuring the amount of carbon dioxide given off when the baking powder reacts with an acid
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.
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 :)
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.
The short answer is : Yes. If you are trying the volcano experiment at home, make sure to wear protective clothing so you don't get burned.
for making homeade breads and batters it contains raising agents which can be in yeast found in baking powder. This produces the gas carbon dioxide. the gas bubbles expand during cooking and stretch the gluten in the flour. this makes the cake and bread mixture rise.

The price of baking powder depends on the average prices in your location as well as the brand you purchase. In Kentucky, baking powder will range from under $1.00 for an off-brand to over $2.00 for brand-name.
