the structure of soap molecules contains 2 parts such as long hydrocarbon and short ionic part.long hydrocarbon chain attract the dirt and ionic part long attract the water. when the dirty cloth dipped into the soap solution solution then long hydrocarbon chain attract the dirt and remove from cloth but short ionic part attract the water therefore it mixed the durt into the water hence water become. dirty. and cloth become clean.

Cleansing action of soaps:
The dirt present on clothes is organic in nature and insoluble in water. Therefore, it cannot be removed by only washing with water. When soap is dissolved in water, its hydrophobic ends attach themselves to the dirt and remove it from the cloth. Then, the molecules of soap arrange themselves in micelle formation and trap the dirt at the centre of the cluster. These micelles remain suspended in the water. Hence, the dust particles are easily rinsed away by water.
