I keep hearing people suggest "baking soda", which is, as you know, simply
sodium bicarbonate which you can get a five-pound bag of for about five
bucks or so at Costco.

My question is more toward figuring out WHY I see baking soda mentioned as
a panacea for almost everything from baby rash to automotive leak repair.

I've had my five pound bag for YEARs, where it will likely last me the rest
of my natural life.

What can you DO with it if you don't own a pool?

Sure, you can use it in cooking, but this question is about home repair.

On another thread, someone said he was going to try "baking soda" to clean
a toilet bowl, where I have to ask what on earth is baking soda going to
do?

OK. SO it's a bit abrasive, but if that's all you want out of it, sugar
would do as well, wouldn't it?

What baking soda is, is an alkaline (that is, not acid) bicarbonate, that
is, it's "hard water" in dry form (sort of).

Other than the abrasive quality (which has nothing to do with the chemical
action), what USEFUL things around the home (other than cooking) can baking
soda do?

My question is more toward figuring out WHY I see baking soda mentioned as
a panacea for almost everything from baby rash to automotive leak repair.

Long ago I looked up the chemistry for how it "deodorizes".
I don't think it actually deodorizes.
People open the box and stick it in the frig, right?

Guess what.
Opening the door for the fifteen seconds it takes to remove milk moves more
air than could fit in that box, right?

a. I don't (yet) see how it can possibly deodorize, and,
b. Even if it could, the surface area is too small to do anything useful.

It's sort of like saying Listerine kills millions of germs on contact.
Guess what? Spitting just once gets rid of just as many germs.
And spitting is free. And doesn't change the taste in your mouth.

If anyone can EXPLAIN how sodium bicarbonate "removes odors", that will be
a feat.

Too many people, IMHO, believe stuff, IMHO, without thinking about it.
I'm not blaming you as no good deed goes unpunished, so I realize you
hazarded a guess ... but I've never been able to figure out HOW a 2x4 inch
surface area of a carbonate can "deodorize" a 20 cubic foot refrigerator.

I just looked at the wikipedia, which, admittedly isn't a chemistry
reference, but it's a start ... where ... it doesn't even list deoderizing
as one of the many (miracle?) things it's supposed to do.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate

A search for "odor" shows it is used as a deoderant (which is completely
different), and to remove odors from books (again, different), but only one
"real" reference for oder removal (reference #65)

[65] Raymond, Jessica (June 10, 2016). "Kitchen Odor Eliminating Candles,
Products, and Tricks". cravedujour.com.
http://cravedujour.com/kitchen-odor-eliminating-candles-products-tricks/#xxTICWbUEW5oLJeh.99

Of course, like most things on the net, the action is "imaginary" or
"magical", in that "it just happens", without any explanation of how.

This hit explains a bit more...
https://www.quora.com/How-does-baking-soda-function-as-a-deodorizer
"Baking soda reacts with most of the acids (e.g., formic, butyric,
propionic, oxygen-cleaved beta-unsaturated free fatty acids) that have a
characteristic rancid or sour odor, sequestering them in a much less
volatile basic salt form while releasing odorless carbon dioxide."

That had three references:
https://oconto.uwex.edu/files/2011/02/Baking-Soda.pdf
https://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/4465/how-does-sodium-bicarbonate-act-as-a-deodorizing-agent
https://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/4451/deodorizing-using-baking-powder-instead-of-baking-soda

"Baking soda is an effective deodorant because of its basicity. Many
foul-smelling compounds are acidic. Neutralizing the compound gives it an
ionic character which reduces the vapor pressure (meaning it is less
available for the nose to smell it) and makes it much more water soluble
(it can be washed away)."

Notice that, if this is correct, ANY alkaline powder would work as well.

Worse, notice the counter argument posed in those references:
"But when you take a look the Wikipedia page on aroma compounds, the only
compounds that could possibly be affected by a weakly basic substance are
esters (which would undergo hydrolysis). Most of the compounds are
polyunsaturated aldehydes, ketones and alcohols which are not affected by
(weak) bases. "

(There was talk in those articles about armpit odor, which I've studied
extensively, and where I can say the problem set is completely different
because of the complex nature of the human body - so we're only asking here
about chemical smells and not biological smells).

The summary, so far, AFAICT, is
o It doesn't really work, not the least of why is you can't spread it out
o But if it did work it would only work on a small variety of acidic odors
o And, even so, ANY weakly basic compound would work as well

I did have luck using it to deodorize a rug. (Dog puke, dog **** etc,
puppies are a bitch)
I pressure cleaned the rug, hung it the sun for a few days with no
real joy, then I broomed in a pound or so of baking soda. let it sit
in the sun all day and vacuumed it out real well. It was as good as
new.

Sodium bicarbonate is amphoteric. In a refrigerator odors from lactic or
acetic acid can be neutralized as well as ammonia based odors. Consider
one of the fouler smelling substances, butyric acid. The reaction yields
sodium butyrate which isn't volatile.

I'll agree the box in the refrigerator seems suspect. If my refrigerator
stunk, I'd go for more surface area. otoh, when used on a carpet, you
spread it out, broom it in, and vacuum it up sometime later. I'll let

That's great.

Not baking soda but a similar story. The steam radiator was dripping
and instead of telling me so I'd call the landlord, my obnoxious
roommate took MY thermal blanket from the closet and just used it to
soak up the water. I only learned this after I kicked him out. I took
up the blanket, saw the water=damaged parquet floor because the blanket
made more wood wet than would have been, and the mildew smell from the
blanket was terrible. Took it to a laundramat and washed it and it
smelled just as bad. Put it in a dryer until dry, or maybe a little
longer, dont' remember, and it smelled good as new, and it never smelled
bad again. Sunlight has big advantages and is free but I lived in an
apartment and had no yard.

I had to look up "amphoteric", as my college chemistry is decades old.
Googling, I don't see any evidence (yet) that baking soda is amphoteric.
That is, it seems to be only alkaline, and not react with bases.

Yup. Only an experiment will tell us for sure, but it seems that we need
surface area since baking soda, in those yellow boxes, is effectively a
solid with a surface area of, oh, about the edge of a two by four, right?

Is that enough surface area? Dunno. I suspect not.
Sprinkled on carpet is a totally different story as that's _all_ surface
area!

I don't know the composition of urine. Looking it up... it seems to be
mostly urea, uric acid, sodium, potassium, creatinine, and water.
https://www.atrianglelegacy.com/brea...-odor-removal/

It seems to also emanate ammonia though...
https://chemistry.stackexchange.com/...tainless-steel

Looking further afield, I found this
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...ll-rancid.html

I don't think the Daily Mail is all that great of a reference, but what it
says is this:
"Cat urine gets its unique smell from a compound called felinine."

So if that's true, that's the chemical we want the baking soda to
neutralize the odor of.

It also says where the ammonia comes from:
"Bacteria in cat faeces typically converts uric acid into ammonia, which
gives the urine its smell. "

They recommend "Fullers Earth", which, I have to look up...
"Fuller's Earth absorbs water from the urine that reacts with the ammonia
to create a series of other acids."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuller%27s_earth
"Fuller's earth is any clay material that has the capability to decolorize
oil or other liquids without chemical treatment.[1][2] Fuller's earth
typically consists of palygorskite (attapulgite) or bentonite.[1]"

It seems to be well driller's clay, mostly made from volcanic ash, and it
doesn't seem to have any baking soda in it.

Seems to me, a box of fuller's earth might work better in the frig to
control odors than a box of baking soda (depending on the odor, of course).

I took organic, but it was in the 60s, so, I need to look that up.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amphoterism
"In chemistry, an amphoteric compound is a molecule or ion
that can react both as an acid and as a base."

My chemistry is rusty, where I remember in the previous post that baking
soda was pretty bad at being an acid, so it's not really amphoteric, most
likely (I think).

Certainly the baking soda compound is NOT mentioned in that Wikipedia
article on Amphoteric Substances. A bit more googling shows it's likely
not amphoteric.

Anyway, even if it was, it's still gotta have more surface area than what
is typically found in an open box stuck in the refrigerator. I would think
you'd have to wipe it as a paste on every surface to have enough surface
area to do anything to those odors that it "can" react with to turn into
salts (and, of those, there are extremely few, it seems).

I'll keep looking though, as I just care about the answer.

When my belief system is threatened by facts, then I simply change my

For example, I always thought that hot water freezes slower than warm
water, but then there's the Mpemba effect, and then again, maybe it doesn't

And yet, there it is in my old Physics Books from the sixties.
Hot water freezes faster than does lukewarm water (but not cold water).

There are a _lot_ of things that people believe, even very smart people

the moon is still there when I'm not looking"), that are wrong.

I am beholden to facts.
