Answers:
Some recipes call for baking soda, while others call for baking powder. Which ingredient is used depends on the other ingredients in the recipe. The ultimate goal is to produce a tasty product with a pleasing texture. Baking soda is basic and will yield a bitter taste unless countered by the acidity of another ingredient, such as buttermilk. You'll find baking soda in cookie recipes. Baking powder contains both an acid and a base and has an overall neutral effect in terms of taste. Recipes that call for baking powder often call for other neutral-tasting ingredients, such as milk. Baking powder is a common ingredient in cakes and biscuits.

yes, do not use baking soda in place of baking powder or vis versa,

Yes - baking powder has baking soda and other things in it.

Yes ,yes they are , can not substitute one for the other...

Of course they are or they would just call them by the same name...

Yes!!! They are very different!! You do not want to mix the 2 up!!! They make whatever you are baking turn out very differently and usually not taste good at all!!!

Yes they are don't interchange them.

Yes, they are two different ingredients. Baking powder will leaven something all by itself - it contains two ingredients which react with each other (an acid and a base). Baking soda must react with something else in the recipe (usually not a problem), because it is only a base.

You cannot substitute baking soda for baking powder. If you need to you take 1/4 of the amount of soda, and add 5/8 the amount of baking powder of cream of tartar.

yes they are

yes, definitely, and I would not substitute one for the other. I found that if a recipe calls for bakind powder and I forget it, then the cake won't come out good.
