Difference types of rising agents (levures)

It's so confusing sometimes. Good to have a summary here:

Français English Dansk
Levure chimique Baking powder Bagepulver
Bicarbonate de soude Baking soda Natron
Levure Yeast Gær
  • Baking soda is a baking ingredient that's activated by a liquid and an acid to help with leavening, or rising
  • Baking powder is a complete leavening agent, meaning it contains both baking soda and an acidic ingredient (such as cream of tartar -- crème de tartare i.e. hydrogénotartrate de potassium). It also sometimes contains some corn starch (amidon de maïs) to preserve the powder over time.
    Baking soda is 3 to 4 times stronger than baking powder.
  • Yeast on contrary to the two previous ones, is living matter.
