we know that dirts are oily in nature.and oil does not dissolve in water.soaps are sodium or potassium salt of long chain carboxilic acid.the carbon chain dissolves in oil and the ionic end is dissolved in water.and hence soap molecules form structures called micelles.

soap does not form micelles in ethanol because soap is soluble in ethanol.......hope itz helpful
