Washing soda is Sodium carbonate :

A white powdery compound, Na2CO3, used in the manufacture of baking

soda, sodium nitrate, glass, ceramics, detergents, and soap.

 

Baking soda:

A white crystalline compound, NaHCO3, with a slightly alkaline taste, used

in making effervescent salts and beverages, artificial mineral water,

pharmaceuticals, and fire extinguishers. Also called bicarbonate of soda, sodium

bicarbonate.

 

 

Note the ratios of Na (Sodium) to carbonate(C03) or just Carbon © Washing soda

has Two Sodium ions per one Carbon and in Baking soda it is 1:1
