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.

What is nacl monosaccharide disaccharide organic or inorganic?
bonufazy [111]
<span>inorganic Let's look at the choices and see why they work, or don't work. monosaccharide * Otherwise known as a simple sugar. And NaCl is definitely not a sugar of any type. So this is wrong. disaccharide * Complex sugar. And NaCl doesn't qualify either. organic * A definition of an organic compound is one that has carbon in it. NaCl has sodium and chlorine. No carbon at all, so this isn't the right answer. And I wish that organic was an earlier choice, since the sugars mentioned above are organic compounds. inorganic * This is the only possible choice. Salt is not an organic compound since it doesn't have carbon. So it can't be a sugar either. But it can and is inorganic.</span>

The pka of hf is 3.2 determine the pkb of hf?
Julli [10]

Well, first we must remember that

pK_{a}+pK_{b}=14

This is because

K_{a}*K_{b}=10^{-14}

-log(K_{a}*K_{b})=-log(10^{-14})\\-logK_{a}+-logK_{b}=-log(10^{-14})\\pK_{a}+pK_{b}=14

So then

pK_{b}=14-pK_{a}=14-3.2=1.8
