It makes oxides when it comes in contact with air and also reacts quickly with water. It is a soft, white in color, reactive metal that is not found naturally and is mostly found in the form of its oxides. Sodium is a metallic element represented by the symbol Na. Sodium Carbonate and Sodium Bicarbonate are two sodium salts that are common in many products we use in homes.
The key difference between sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate is that the sodium carbonate contains sodium, carbon and oxygen atoms whereas the sodium bicarbonate contains sodium, carbon, oxygen atoms along with a hydrogen atom. Sodium carbonate (Na 2CO 3), commonly called as washing soda or soda ash, is a sodium salt of carbonic acid whereas, sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO 3), known as baking soda, is another salt of sodium.
