The polar bear (Ursus maritimus) is a carnivorous bear whose native range lies largely within the Arctic Circle, encompassing the Arctic Ocean, its surrounding seas and surrounding land masses. It is a large bear, approximately the same size as the omnivorous Kodiak bear (Ursus arctos middendorffi).
All baking powders contain sodium bicarbonate (just like baking soda). But baking powder also contains two acids. One of these acids is called monocalcium phosphate. Monocalcium phosphate doesnât react with the sodium bicarbonate while itâs dry.
Baking powder is basically a blend of acid (most commonly calcium acid phosphate, sodium aluminum sulfate or cream of tartar) and alkali (sodium bicarbonate known commonly as baking soda). By adding water to this mixture, a chemical reaction is achieved, producing carbon dioxide which is trapped in tiny air pockets in the dough or batter.
