Soda Ash vs Sodium Bicarbonate? | Reef2Reef
2018年8月25日 · Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) does get converted to Soda Ash (sodium carbonate) by heating....preferably in an oven. What occurs is the heat drives off a carbon dioxide converting the bicarb. to the carb. In baking applications, it acts like a "chemical" yeast, producing little bubbles in the cake/bread/whatever you're baking.

CA and Sodium bicarbonate vs CA and Calcium hydroxide
2020年5月7日 · I read up on making Cyano Acrylate stronger for bonding rockwork before adding reef epoxy. I found two options, Sodium Bicarb and Calcium oxide/hydroxide. Which would form a stronger bond with CA? Bicarb or kalkwasser? If the bond is super strong then I might be able to forgo the epoxy putty as I cant get it easily here on the island. Thanks bro.

Mixing Sodium Carbonate with Sodium Bicarbonate | Reef2Reef
2019年11月30日 · Converting that into a dry weight ratio of the two compounds by multiplying by the MW of sodium bicarbonate (84) divided by the MW of sodium carbonate (106), we get 8.2 * 84 / 106 = 6.5. So a 6.5:1 ratio of grams of sodium bicarbonate to sodium carbonate should give a pH of around 8.2 when dissolved in seawater.
