SOAPSA soap is the sodium salt (or potassium
salt) of a long chain carboxylic acid (fatty
acid) which has cleansing property in
water.

Sodium Stearate ( C17H35COONa)
Sodium Stearate soap is the sodium salt
of a long chain saturated fatty acid
called stearic acid. Sodium stearate soap
has along alkyl group (C17H35) and an
ionic carboxylate group (COO-Na+).

Sodium Palmitate (C15H31COONa)Sodium Palmitate ‘soap’ is the sodium
salt of long chain saturated fatty acid
called stearic acid (C15H31COOH).

A soap molecule is made up of two parts : a long hydrocarbon part and a short ionic part containing COO-Na+
group. The soap molecule is said to have a tadpole structure.

We use soaps on daily basis.
Following are some uses of soaps:-•Washing hands•Washing clothes• Cleaning utensils

Hard water contains calcium and magnesium salts. Soap is not
suitable for washing clothes with hard water because of two reasons
:-
A large amount of soap is wasted in reacting with
the calcium and magnesium ions of hard water to
form an insoluble precipitate called scum, before
it can be used for the real purpose of washing .
The scum, sticks to the clothes being washed and
interferes with the cleaning ability of the
additional soap. This makes the cleaning of
clothes difficult.

A detergent is the sodium salt
of a long chain benzene
sulphonic acid which has
cleansing property in water.

Detergents can be used even with hard water whereas soaps are not suitable for use with hard water.
Detergents have a stronger cleansing action than soaps.
Detergents are more soluble in water than soaps.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOAPS AND DETERGENTS
Detergents are the
sodium salts of long
chain benzene
sulphonic acids.
These can be use in
both in hard as well
as soft water.
Detergents have a
strong cleansing
action.
Soaps are the sodium
salts of the long chain
carboxylic acids.
The action of soap is
better when water is
soft.
Soaps have relatively
weak cleansing
action.
