Baking soda is a white crystalline powder (NaHCO3) better known to chemists as sodium bicarbonate, bicarbonate of soda, sodium hydrogen carbonate, or sodium acid carbonate. It is classified as an acid salt, formed by combining an acid (carbonic) and a base (sodium hydroxide), and it reacts with other chemicals as a mild alkali. At temperatures above 300 degrees Fahrenheit (149 degrees Celsius), baking sodadecomposes into sodium carbonate (a more stable substance), water, and carbon dioxide.
The native chemical and physical properties of baking sodaaccount for its wide range of applications, including cleaning, deodorizing, buffering, and fire extinguishing.

Baking soda neutralizes odors chemically, rather than masking or absorbing them. Consequently, it is used in bath salts and deodorant body powders. Baking soda tends to maintain a pH of 8.1 (7 is neutral) even when acids, which lower pH, or bases, which raise pH, are added to the solution. Its ability to tabletize makes it a good effervescent ingredient in antacids and denture cleaning products. Sodium bicarbonate is also found in some anti-plaque mouth-wash products and toothpaste. When baking soda is used as a cleaner in paste form or dry on a damp sponge, its crystalline structure provides a gentle abrasion that helps to remove dirt without scratching sensitive surfaces. Its mild alkalinity works to turn up fatty acids contained in dirt and grease into a form of soap that can be dissolved in water and rinsed easily. Baking soda is also used as a leavening agent in making baked goods such as bread or pancakes.
When combined with an acidic agent (such as lemon juice), carbon dioxide gas is released and is absorbed by the product's cells. As the gas expands during baking, the cell walls expand as well, creating a leavened product.
It controls the rate at which chyme enters the small intestine
Explanation:
Cephalic phase is one of the phase of gastric secretion (other two are gastric phase and intestinal phase) that begins even before food enters the oral cavity. Thinking of food stimulates the release of gastric juice via parasympathetic nervous system). Food that enters the stomach also stimulates the secretion of gastric juice by parietal cells. Partially digested food directly activates G cells (Enteroendocrine cells) to secrete gastrin which also stimulates the release of gastric juice.
We have to Stimulate birds with 3 different beaks by feeding them fruit to stimulate a positive change in the environment because birds control insect and rodent in the environment that causes severe damage to crops. It also contributes to pollination, and seed dispersal which result in great benefits to people. Annually insects destroy hundreds of millions of dollars of agricultural and forest products so if we provide safe environment to the birds they can save our millions of dollars.
