How does baking soda mixed with water affect a corn plant?

From doing my experiment there is a affect of baking soda on plants. First of all you shouldn't water any plants with baking soda because it contains chemical. If you do water a plant with baking soda you will see the plants water over flowing and also the plant is going to rot. But it is good for not growing mold on the plant. So overall you can use it for many different reason's.
