Is soap solution a mixture?
Answers
Answer:
Soaps are water-soluble sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids. Soaps are made from fats and oils, or their fatty acids, by treating them chemically with a strong alkali. Soap can mix with both water and with oil. The soap molecule has two different ends, one that is hydrophilic (polar head) that binds with water and the other that is hydrophobic (non-polar hydrocarbon tail) that binds with grease and oil. The long non-polar end of soap gravitates towards and surrounds the dirt and absorbs the dust in it. The short polar end with the carboxylate ion repels the water away from the dirt. A spherical aggregate of soap molecules is formed in the soap solution in water and is called a micelle, a mixture of heterogenous property, from a homogenous compound, dissolved in water and mixing with oil, holding both the media together and getting out of the clothes.
