It is used to develop photographs. It regulates the ph to maintain stable conditions in the mix of chemicals needed to develop the photograph. It is also used in toothpaste to increase mouth ph. It also works as a foaming agent in the toothpaste.
• electrolysis : sodium carbonate also is used as an electrolyte, which helps create chemical reactions with electrodes in a process that involves electrical current and is called electrolysis.
• water softener : sodium carbonate is frequently used in households as a water softener used when doing laundry. It works by preventing the calcium and magnesium ions found in hard water from bonding with the detergent being used. Without its presence, more detergent is needed to soak up the hard water ions.
