Going Green with Lisa Bronner - Why all the hype about washing with soap? How does it work? Soap forms nifty little nuggets called micelles. Soap molecules are bipolar, meaning molecules have

Chemistry Quizzes - • How soaps clean:- • Soaps are sodium or potassium fatty acids salts, produced from the hydrolysis of fats in a chemical reaction called saponification. • Each soap molecule
