Meaning they start work as soon as they hit moisture. The one with the cornstarch can sit on a shelf a little longer - the cornstarch absorbs some moisture. The second one should to be used soon.

The way to know is to look at the recipe and see if there's anything "acid" in the recipe - lemon juice, buttermilk, vinegar, etc. If there is, then you use baking SODA. If not, then you HAVE to use baking powder. It's the interaction between the acid and the soda that causes the product to rise. Baking powder has it's own acid (Cream of Tartar). Even when you use both baking powder AND baking soda in the recipe, there will be something of an acid nature in the recipe to help with the rising. Homemade baking powder (single acting) 2 Tbs Cream of Tartar 1 Tbs Baking SODA 1 Tbs Corn Starch Use one tsp for each tsp of commercial powder called for in recipe. Baking powder (double-acting) 1/4 tsp soda 1/2 tsp Cream of Tartar Mix together and use to replace 1 tsp commercial baking powder. Can double or triple recipe. But don't make too much, it's better made fresh (as is true of ALL baking powders-homemade or commercial! Sometimes people misspeak when they talk about baking powder or soda.
