Answer:
Cleaning Action Of Soaps :
☆ Most of the dirt is oily in nature and oil does not dissolve in water. The molecule of soap constitutes sodium or potassium salts of long-chain carboxylic acids. In the case of soaps, the carbon chain dissolves in oil and the ionic end dissolves in water. In this way the soap molecules remove all the dirt from the clothes.
