Question

why micelles are not form in hard water? please write full explanation.

Answer 1

Micelles usually form in soap molecules. Soap often formas micelles because they contain only one hydrocarbon chain instead of two. Therefore they make up the soap property. Micelles act as emulsifiers that allows a compound that is usually insoluble in water to dissolve

Answer 2

Micelles have the hydrophobic tails clustered together in the center (away from the water), and the hydrophilic ionic ends are on the outside, and are solvated by the water molecules. ... Soap molecules have problems in hard water. Hard water contains minerals in the form of salts, for example that from the SALT RIVER!!
