The melting point of sodium hydrogen carbonate is 50 deg C.

Sodium hydrogen carbonate is also known as baking soda or bicarbonate of soda and it is an odorless, white crystalline solid with a density of 2.2 g/mL.

It is a common chemical found in household items like soaps, detergents, toothpastes, and other products. It is a source of carbon dioxide and can be used as an ingredient in effervescent salts and beverages. It is also a component of dry-chemical fire extinguishers and is used as a mild abrasive.

The melting point of sodium hydrogen carbonate is the lowest temperature at which it breaks down and forms carbon dioxide and water. It is usually stored at room temperature, but can be stored at lower temperatures if it is packaged well.

Baking soda is commonly used as a leavening agent during cooking. When it comes into contact with acidic ingredients like hydrogen phosphates, cream of tartar, juice of lemon, yoghurt, buttermilk and cocoa, it reacts and releases carbon dioxide which causes the batter to rise and expand during baking. This results in the characteristic texture and grain structure you typically see in quick bread, soda bread, idlis, khamman and many other baked foods.

Uses of baking soda

Sodium hydrogen carbonate is often used as an antacid to treat heartburn and acid indigestion. It is also injected intravenously to prevent or cure kidney disease, cocaine toxicity, reviving newborns, poisoning from certain allergy medications, and to prevent cancer. It is also used as a pain reliever. Sodium hydrogen carbonate is also used as a disinfectant and is found in toilet cleaners, laundry detergents and bathroom cleansers. It can also be used to scald vegetables and legumes, softening them faster.
