What's the difference between Baking Soda and Baking Powder?

What's the difference between Baking Soda and Baking Powder?

Baking Powder contains an acidifying agent (cream of tartar) and a drying agent (usually starch)

Baking Soda is stronger, but needs an acid agent to start acting. Baking Powder has the stuff in it, all it needs is water to act.

You can substitute Baking Powder for BSoda, but you CANNOT sub soda for powder.
