Tapioca starch has similar properties to corn starch. The amylose content of tapioca starch is about the same as corn starch but there are some phosphate groups present in tapioca which I think affect the solubility of starches in water.
No, they are not the same. They are both starches and can be used as thickening agents, but they come from different plants. Each has different thickening capabilities and they have different flavors.
Baking soda is not at all similar to tapioca starch, so you would get a very different result if you replaced one with the other. A more logical substitution for tapioca starch would be corn starch.
You can use 4 teaspoons of quick cooking tapioca OR 1 tablespoon corn starch in place of 2 tablespoons flour for thickening.
In general cornstarch is used to thicken liquids and can be replaced with flour, arrowroot, potato starch, tapioca, coconut flour and even instant mashed potato granules. For frying, flour, salt and pepper is a decent substitute for cornstarch.
Tapioca is a type of starch.
