To create a balanced chemical equation involving the compounds you've provided (\( \text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{22}\text{O}_{11} \), \( \text{C}_{24}\text{H}_{36}\text{O}_{18} \), \( \text{NaHCO}_3 \), \( \text{CO}_2 \), \( \text{H}_2\text{O} \)), we need to first identify a reaction context.

One possibility is to consider the decomposition of sucrose (\( \text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{22}\text{O}_{11} \)) in a reaction that involves sodium bicarbonate (\( \text{NaHCO}_3 \)), water (\( \text{H}_2\text{O} \)), and possibly producing carbon dioxide (\( \text{CO}_2 \)).

Let's propose a reaction where sucrose decomposes with sodium bicarbonate under heat. Sodium bicarbonate would generally serve as a leavening agent, releasing \( \text{CO}_2 \) and water in the process. However, you listed both sucrose and another sugar, resulting in potential complexity.

For simplicity and based on various assumptions, we could write a generalized reaction as follows:

1. Starting with sucrose, assume it reacts with sodium bicarbonate:
\[
\text{C}_{12}\text{H}_{22}\text{O}_{11} + \text{NaHCO}_3 \rightarrow \text{C}_{24}\text{H}_{36}\text{O}_{18} + \text{NaOH} + \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O}
\]

Now, balancing the equation may require adjusting coefficients, but since a direct reaction producing two sugar molecules from one has no real precedent, it needs further context (like multiple sugar conversions).

However, without specific details on what reaction you intended, we suggest:

**Balanced Equation:**
Try balancing that you have implied products of common reaction with simple carbohydrates and reagents:
- Assume no net change in carbohydrate mass and produce 2 equivalents of products or just carbon dioxide and water as per bicarbonate decomposition even in presence of sugar.

Please remember, proper chemical context may be needed for an accurately tailored synthesis equation! The real balanced equations could require more precise conditions, or even leading to a different product mix.

If you have a specific reaction in mind or other compounds/products involved, please specify!
