Sodium bicarbonate and baking soda are the same. I don't know about substituting the other ingredients but I'm sure they are not the same. I would not advice you to substitute one with another. As far as I know, recipes call for baking soda if the recipe has a sour ingredient with which they want the soda to react and start fermentation. Goodluck, if you are substituting and let me know the result!

Here is a site on the internet comparing baking soda and baking powder. This will give you a very detailed information about the two compounds.
