(N/A) The salt formed by the reaction of carbonic acid $(H_{2}CO_{3})$ and sodium hydroxide $(NaOH)$ is sodium carbonate,with the formula $Na_{2}CO_{3}$.
$(b)$ The chlor-alkali process involves the electrolysis of brine $(NaCl$ solution$)$,which produces sodium hydroxide $(NaOH)$,chlorine gas,and hydrogen gas. The basic substance formed is sodium hydroxide $(NaOH)$.
$(c)$ Sodium hydrogen carbonate $(NaHCO_{3})$,also known as baking soda,is added to cakes. Upon heating,it releases carbon dioxide gas,which makes the cakes fluffy.
