Question

What is micelles? why does it form when soap is added to water? will a micelle be formed in other solvent such as ethanol also? state briefly how the formation of micelles help to clean clothes having oily spots?

Answer 1

Soap molecules have two ends one end is the hydrocarbon chain which is water repellent where as the other end is the ionic part which is water soluble end . when soap is dissolved in water it forms a group of many molecules called micelle.
Micelle formation in ethanol will not occur because the hydrocarbon chain end of the soap will dissolve in ethanol.
Soaps in the form of micelle are able to clean dirt y cloths having oily spots ,as the oily dirt is collected in the centre of micelle, which forms an emulsion in water and on rinsing ,the water washes away the micelles with dirt attached to them.

Answer 2

Explanation:

surface of water with the ionic and in water and the hydrocarbon tail producing auto water inside water is molecule show a unique orientations that keeps the hydrocarbon portion out of the water this is done by forming clusters of molecules in which the hydrophobic tales are in the interior of the cluster and one of the surface of cluster ionic bonds are presentthis formation of clash of molecules is called Michael to wash away the laws and dirt particles in the form of Michaels from the surface of the cloth it is easier script mechanical your beta 9 educated in washing machine in the form of a microscope is equal to clean since the old is being connected in the centre of Michael Michael stairs calories in the solution and does not come together to precipitate due to i9 represents hence the dirt suspended in the Michaels is also easily
