Baking soda, used in baking, is equally useful for eliminating odors and cleaning your kitchen . It has become popular among housewives because it pollutes the environment less than conventional cleaning chemicals.

Sodium bicarbonate is a mild, naturally occurring mineral with low alkalinity found in mineral deposits in the sea or soil and in living organisms. . .

Abrasive effect

Made possible by the physical properties of elastic crystals. Mixing baking soda with a little water (baking soda is water-soluble) softens the edges of the baking soda crystals, melts them, and removes impurities, thus protecting the surface of the polished object from damage.

Alkaline neutralization < /strong> < / p>

Solid soils or oils are made up of an acidic substance called fatty acid, which is neutralized by slightly alkaline baking soda. The nature of neutralizing and neutralizing acids and maintaining a constant pH play an important role in various aspects of life other than cleaning. It removes unpleasant odors from sinks or prevents deterioration of water quality in tanks and neutralizes acids that cause pain and itching after insect bites. Because sodium bicarbonate is weakly alkaline, it neutralizes most acidic substances, generating water and carbon dioxide, while converting other substances into water-soluble salts. Thus, dirt is easily removed.

Softening effect

Baking soda softens water by absorbing metal ions such as calcium and magnesium when dissolved. Soft water made with baking soda has a great effect. After dissolving baking soda in bath water, it becomes soft enough to not irritate the skin. Bathing in water with baking soda enhances the carbonizing effect of baking soda, which improves blood circulation and makes you feel like you're in hot weather. The water in which baking soda is dissolved contains a lot of sodium, thanks to which it has a strong cleansing effect and lightly moisturizes the skin by absorbing dirt.

Deodorization

Chemically cleaned soda neutralizes unpleasant odors. Most odors are acidic, and baking soda, which is slightly alkaline, can help eliminate them. Baking soda absorbs and eliminates unpleasant odors, while general air fresheners cover unpleasant odors with stronger odors. Additionally, it has the ability to absorb alkaline odors by reacting with ammonia or certain amino acids, making it effective for a wide range of odors such as rotting food waste, urine, fish odor, body odor, and bad breath. Baking soda is very hygroscopic and absorbs moisture while eliminating odors, so you should store it in a humid cabinet.

Examples of using baking soda:

< strong > Traces of burns from pots or pans

Pour water over the burnt part of the pan or pot, add a handful of baking soda, and bring to a boil. Let it sit overnight, then gently scrub with a sponge and rinse. Be careful with aluminum pans, however, as they can turn black.

Cleaning a sink or gas stove

As mentioned above, baking soda particles are very soft, so even if you use it on a sink or gas stove, it won't scratch. Sprinkle baking soda on the sink and gas stove, then wipe with a well-wrung cloth to remove any dirt.

Sterilize

Sprinkle the cutting boards with baking soda and let it sit for a while, then spray the board with hot water to remove food odors from the cutting board and sterilize it.

Cleaning

Place 1 cup of baking soda down the drain and pour hot water over it to eliminate unpleasant odors. Baking soda also absorbs grease and leaves it clean.

Deodorizing the refrigerator

Put baking soda in a cup and place it in the refrigerator; it will act as a deodorant. The soda in the refrigerator should be changed every two weeks, and after use, it can be used for cleaning or washing.

Vegetables / fruits

Sprinkle vegetables or fruits evenly and wash them with water or dissolve 4 tablespoons of baking soda in 1 liter of water to make a solution. Removes dust, dirt, and wax from the skin of fruits such as strawberries, peaches, grapes, and plums, and vegetables such as potatoes, cucumbers, pumpkins, and carrots.
