Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) dissolved in the water, releasing carbon dioxide. why was it important to add the baking soda?

It will dissolve in water making it slightly more basic. Baking powder is the mix of sodium bicarbonate and a solid weak acid. If you add that to water the acid/base neutralization occurs which produces carbon dioxide. ... Baking soda(NaHCO3) react with water to form Carbonic acid(H2CO3) which dissociates into CO2 and H2O.
