The more commonly used baking powder contains about $30 \% NaHCO_3$,$20 \% NaAl(SO_4)_2$,$10 \% Ca(H_2PO_4)_2$ and $40 \% \text{starch}$. Which of the following statements is/are correct?

  • A
    $Ca(H_2PO_4)_2$ is acidic and when moistened it reacts with $NaHCO_3$ evolving $CO_2$ gas
  • B
    $NaAl(SO_4)_2$ slows down the decomposition reaction of $NaHCO_3$ so that $CO_2$ is evolved more slowly
  • C
    $NaAl(SO_4)_2$ is acidic and when moistened it reacts with $NaHCO_3$ evolving $CO_2$
  • D
    Both $(A)$ and $(C)$
