$ANSWER..!$ $A soap molecule consists of a polar ionic hydrophilic (water "loving") end, which is shown in blue in the structure above, and a non-polar hydrophobic (water "hating") end, which is the hydrocarbon chain shown in red above.When greasy dirt or oil is mixed with soapy water, the soap molecules arrange themselves into tiny clusters called micelles. The water-loving (hydrophilic) part of the soap molecules sticks to the water and points outwards, forming the outer surface of the micelle$ $<!DOCTYPE html><html> <head> <title>HTML marquee Tag</title> </head> <body> <marquee direction = "up">☺Brainliest please☺⠀⠀☺Brainliest please☺</marquee> </body></html>$

Answer:

Soaps are sodium or potassium salts of long chain fatty acids. When triglycerides in fat/oil react with aqueous NaOH or KOH, they are converted into soap and glycerol. ... Since this reaction leads to the formation of soap, it is called the Saponification process.

Soap can mix with both water and with oil. ... When greasy dirt or oil is mixed with soapy water, the soap molecules arrange themselves into tiny clusters called micelles. The water-loving (hydrophilic) part of the soap molecules sticks to the water and points outwards, forming the outer surface of the micelle.
