The video tutorial explains how to write the chemical formula for baking soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate. It covers the identification of chemical symbols for sodium (Na), hydrogen (H), and carbonate (CO3), and discusses the charges of these ions. Sodium and hydrogen both have a +1 charge, while the carbonate ion has a -2 charge. By balancing these charges, the correct formula for baking soda is determined to be NaHCO3.
