B. They may be gases, liquids, or solids at room temp.
It's classified as an acid
Hey there!:
density = 3.51 g/cm³
Volume = 0.0270 cm³
Therefore:
D = m / V
3.51 = m / 0.0270
m = 3.51 * 0.0270
m = 0.09477 g
Soap is the sodium or potassium salt of long chain of fatty acid. Fatty acids when treated with NaOH or KOH forms Soap. This process is called as Saponification. Examples of Soap are as follow,
1. Sodium Stearate C₁₇H₃₅COONa
2. Potassium Oleate C₁₇H₃₃COOK
Reaction of Soap with MgCl₂;
When Soap is treated with MgCl₂ or CaCl₂ it forms insoluble precipitate called S.C.U.M. The reactions with MgCl₂ are as follow,
2C₁₇H₃₅COONa + MgCl₂ --------> 2C₁₇H₃₅COOMg + 2 NaCl
2C₁₇H₃₃COOK + MgCl₂ --------> 2C₁₇H₃₅COOMg + 2 KCl
These reaction are often found in hard water. And this reaction decreases the effectiveness of soap.
