Answer:

Soap, water, and oil are all made up of molecules. Some molecules are hydrophilic, (hydro=water and philic=loving) these molecules are attracted to water.

Some molecules are hydrophobic, (hydro=water and phobic=fearing), they are repelled by water.

Water and anything that will mix with water are hydrophilic.

Oil and anything that will mix with oil are hydrophobic.

We all know that when water and oil are mixed they separate. Hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds just do not mix.

How Soap Works

Two other words we need to know are polar and nonpolar. Nonpolar compounds, like oil and grease, cannot dissolve in water. Polar compounds can dissolve in water.
